It is important to understand some of the table structures.
To access valuation reports from previous months there is a special table that holds period end data. Once the period is closed this data cannot be amended.
This table is updated by :-
- Running Stock Valuation reports. (wbStock0200; 0210; 0220). Every time you run the one of these reports the table is updated until the period is closed.
- Closing the period to data in the Period Ends Table.
Answering no means that the table is not updated consequently period end values will not be available. Recommended to answer Yes.
Job Transaction and Stock Adjustment tables hold transactional data.
Inwadrs Goods table holds Stock Receipts.
The Stock Quantities table holds the current Quantity.
The Items table holds the unit cost rates.
Accurate Cut offs are required whether it is just a Month End or whether a Stocktake is included.
