  5. Forecast when and Item will reach the re-order level

    Based on historical sales data, It will be good to know how much time remaining for an item to reach the re-order level. This will help a lot in putting plans for ordering new material.

  6. Distinction between raw material and finished goods and track raw material consumption based on finished goods produced.

    We receive goods in kg and we convert them into smaller packs of numbers. It is difficult to track inventory in this manner. also, we buy packaging material which is primary to our product. whenever we sell these smaller no's pack, we sell them in this primary packaging that we bought (cardboard boxes). But when we make the sale, we only select the main item in invoice and not the cardboard boxes and thus we cannot track its inventory. How can this be solved?

  8. Show Physical stock available for sale on order entry screen

    When keying an order in BOOKS, the stock status is shown below the Qty field.
    This number is often totally useless and causes false assumptions as it is showing accounting stock instead of Physical and the Available for Sale count, which is what matters. Unless you click on the link and drop down the field, then click on physical stock, you are looking at information that will lead you to tell your customer false information on inventory.

  9. INVENTORY MOVEMENT REPORT BASED IN PR & PACKAGE

    It is best to have individual inventory movement report based on the PR, packages & sales returns. (Example - if you view a item in the inventory valuation report it will show the accounting stock movement based on the invoices, bills and credit notes. Same report based on the PR, Package & Sales returns as well.)

  10. possibility of selecting several warehouse

    It would be helpful to be able to choose warehouse for each line in sale order or invoice.

    I do not have the possibility of selecting several warehouse on the same invoice or customer order.
    Currently, a default warehouse is selected for all invoice lines, this is not the reality of warehouse management needs

  12. Enable default inventory account for new items

    Having to now select from Finished Goods, Inventory Asset or Work in Progress leaves room for error. It would be good if in the preferences for items we could select a default account and then only change it as necessary. We only track Inventory Assets but have had recent errors in the set up of new items as Finished Goods

  13. Costing & Profit Allocation

    Since all the bills are accounted for in Zoho, it would be easy to automatically show how much it costs to make an item, then manually input margins for various entities such as distributor, retailer and company's to arrive at what the MRP should be. I can give a futuristic SKU for the product I am going to make with a name and tag my bills to that SKU. Even budgeting can be done for deciding how much I can ideally spend to make a product and help me choose raw materials/sourcing accordingly. I am currently doing all of this…

  19. Take into account Committed Stock in Reorder Report

    We have a longer shipping delay and a lot of orders coming in daily. We need the reorder report to include committed stock in order to be ahead of our inventory.

    Example:
    Items in stock: 50
    Reorder point: 40
    On Sales Order: 35 (Committed Stock)
    On Purchase Order: 10

    That's 50 items in stock, minus 30 committed stock we're at 20 available stock.
    I already have 10 on a PO so to get back up to 40 I would need to order 20 more.

    Basic inventory management equation:
    In stock items - Committed Stock + On Purchase Order - Reorder…
