Item Age Composition - Value (report)

The Item Age Composition - Value report shows the value of on-hand inventory aged by receipt date.

You can configure the report's aging to generate three equal length periods on an ending date. The inventory's age is calculated for each period, as well as before and after the period. The report also shows total value of inventory.

The values represent the total cost of the remaining quantity for open inbound item ledger entries, which are usually a result of purchases, output, or positive adjustments. The posting date of each entry determines the bucket they're in.

To determine the age of inventory by warehouse, you can filter the report by location. You can also filter by item.
