Is it normal for a document to be posted with a quantity of 0?
*This post is locked for comments
I have never came across any predefined setup which prevents the entry of zero quantity on inventory-related transactions. The question is, why would a user enters and post a zero quantity in purpose ?
If this is a high priority requirement in your environment, a simple VBA code on the screen would do the job. But I don't recommend such a customization as you will have to roll through several inventory-related transactions and processes to ensure a valid business logic
Please never hesitate to share any further inquiries,
Yes it is possible, although you need to take into consideration that non of the key inventory tables will be updated at all which are:
Therefore, when you post such a transaction and check the item transaction inquiry, nothing will show up, because practically speaking there is no inventory records at all.
Talking about the sales module as an example, if you post a sales transaction with a zero quantity, it will keep records in the sales module, but again nothing at all in the inventory module
Finally, since the cost is zero as well, no journal entries will be posted at all.
