Business value

Modernized inventory reports deliver a more intuitive experience by replacing outdated RDL layouts with familiar Excel and Word formats, making analysis and editing easier. Updated documentation helps you quickly learn about and apply these reports. The addition of the new Item Age Composition by Quantity and Value report provides deeper insights into ageing inventory. Deprecating older reports reduces redundancy and streamlines reporting for better decision-making and operational efficiency.

Feature details

We've added modernized versions of the following inventory reports:

  • Inventory Top 10 List
  • Item Availability
  • Inventory Purchase Orders
  • Item/Vendor Catalog
  • Inventory Availability Plan
  • Item Age Composition by Quantity and Value (new report)
  • Inventory - Transaction Detail
  • Item Expiration - Quantity

By modernizing a report, we mean:

  • We replaced RDL layouts with Excel and Word layouts.
  • We updated our documentation in Microsoft Learn.

We're also deprecating the following reports:

  • Item Age Composition - Value
  • Item Age Composition - Quantity
  • Items with Negative Inventory
