If an item is sold by weight, entrée will perpetually maintain the on hand weight of the item.

 

•As product is received, the on hand weight is increased.

 

•entrée reduces the on hand weight for Constant weight items after the invoice is saved.

 

•entrée reduces the on hand weight for Catchweight items after the invoice is printed.

 

•entrée reduces the on hand weight for items with a unit of measure set to LB. after the weight is entered.

 

•The ability to edit the value in this field may be determined by the Allow editing of On Hand Quantity and On Hand Weight in Inventory File Maintenance password option.

 

 

 

Do not edit the on hand weight for items that are tracked by lot. When an item is tracked by lot, entrée maintains the value based on the sum of the on hand weights in each of the lots for the item.

 

 

In V3.6.39 the posting of updates to "On Hand Quantity" and "On Hand Weight" will use a "differential" adjustment method going forward.

 

Changes are monitored so that the change that you made is integrated with potential changes made by other users in the system.

 

If "On Hand Quantity" was 10 and you adjusted it to 8, in the pre-3.6.39 design the system would post 8 as the "On Hand Quantity" value. The problem was that if someone had invoiced 5 while you were editing the item then the correct inventory would be 3.

 

In the new 3.6.39 design sees that you went from 10 to 8 (a "differential" of -2) and adjusts whatever value is currently in the database. Now the system looks and sees that the new invoice had reduced the On Hand from 10 to 5, so it subtracts 2 to account for your adjustment and posts back the desired value of 3.
