The ItemDynamic table and inventory reports

This question is answered

Hi All:

 

Does anyone know if the HQ ItemDynamic table is updated with every transaction, as an HQ client connects, or only when a 501 worksheet is requested?

 

I want an up-to-date item quantity for  store-inventory report without having to run a 501 every time. It does look like it's kept in sync with the store data, but I'm not 100% sure.

  • My, take, for what it's worth, is the itemdynamic entries are created when you roll out a 250, and update via 401's. I'm not so sure about the 501, but you can run a test and find out.

  • Whenever the item qty is changed at the store level due to sales, purchase, or any type of movement, the corresponding record is updated at the HQ

  • Thanks to both of you.

    It appears the SnapShotQuantity column gets updated. There's a separate Quantity column, but I'm not sure of it's purpose.

  • Forget about the quantity field, it's the SnapShotQuantity that u should be looking at
