How to use stock control
The easiest way to control stock is to maintain just the physical stock records. To do this:-
- Optimise a run
- Issue Stock - Runs (to adjust physical stock
- Adjust Stock (to record stock receipts and issues)
Stock orders and reservations - there are two extra libraries for reserving and recording stock orders
Stock reservations library
Stock orders library
To manage stock:-
Optimise a run
Reserve boards with RESERVE STOCK
The program updates the reserved quantity in the board library and records the reservation in the reservations library
Record the order with ORDERS
The program updates the ON ORDER quantity in the board library and adds the new order to the Orders library.
Record receipt of order with RECEIPTS
The program updates the physical quantity in the board library, decreases the On order quantity in the board library and decreases the quantity in the orders library (deletes the order if it is complete)
Send runs to the saw
Update board library physical stock with: ISSUE STOCK - RUNS
The program decreases the reserved quantity in the board library by the quantity in the reservations library and removes the reservation from the reservations library
