Business value

This new way of generating an on-hand inventory report is beneficial in cases where the output contains a large number of lines. For example, requesting the on-hand inventory by item, site, and warehouse in a scenario for 50,000 items and 300 stores would yield a very long report, making the data difficult to review. The ability to sort and filter the results in the application or to export the results to an external system makes the on-hand inventory report results faster and easier to navigate.

Feature details

The new Inventory on-hand report storage feature generates an on-hand inventory report and then saves the results in Supply Chain Management, where you can explore the results online and/or export them for use in an external system.

When you generate a report using this feature, you'll be asked to specify a unique name for it, and then the generated report will be stored under this name. This eliminates the need for running multiple on-hand inventory reports for the same period. Users can browse any stored report by going to the Inventory on-hand report storage details page.

Inventory on-hand report storage reports are stored in a new data entity, which enables you export the output of any specific, named inventory on-hand report to any format supported by data management.
