I was just asked to review why inventory items all had negative on hand quantities. I had them show me how they do receivings. I was surprised to see they never create POs and on the receipt screen they leave the PO number blank. When I look for inventory transactions I do not see any. Is this a conseqeunce of not entering a PO? Does GP now think the item is a non-inventory item?
Hi Richard,
Just tested this process on my demo version of Dynamics GP 18.00.0727 and posting a "Shipment" without any PO did affect the on hand amount and created an inventory transaction.
Therefore everything is working as expected on my test system.
It will be interesting to know why you are seeing this behaviour. I hope you get to the bottom of it
Thanks
Gavin
Gavin, I had reset everything to zero and removed all transactions from all tables. Using a backup of IV30300 and SmartConnect I imported the transactions back into GP. I then noticed a huge negative number for qtyonhnd for one item at one location. It turns out the client has been overriding quantity shortages for years.After the import none of the records indicated the source. I did however confirm that the qtyonhnd does get adjusted when receiving without a po. Thanks for chiming in on this.
