Physical negative inventory

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 87
Hi,
I have a client who wants to turn off the "Physical negative inventory " flag on the item model group. Whn he tries to do that, he gets the following error message "
The current combination of inventory dimension groups with the item model group XXX for item XXX effects a negative physical on-hand quantity of -14.19 for the dimensions Site=ZZZ,Warehouse=ZZZ01. Select a different configuration, or change the on-hand quantity."
My understanding is to make this current negative stock to Zero or positive and then turn this flag off, is this approach correct or do we need to do some changes in the configurations, if yes then which one? 
 
I have the same question (0)

    Good day,
     
    Could you run a inventory closing and try it again?
     
    Best regards,
    Laurens van der Tang

    Hi,
    What you suggested should work. I would validate with a sample test :
    1) creating a new Item Model Group identical in all points to the one with negative inventory.  
    2) Do exactly what you laid out above:
    • Select one item and adjust inventory to 0
    • Change the item's Item Model Group to your new IMG
    • It should work, but you might get other messages that will clarify what else needs to be done
    • Standard cost items do not normally require inventory closing, but that might be required for such changes.  I have seen stranger things.
