Overview

A stock snapshot can be created to provide customers with stock information at the time of day it has been run.  This data can be used to run stock comparisons and reconciliations or just as a general stock sheet.

Format

The report is in pdf, csv and xml format. In csv format  it can be read into your system or can be opened in excel.

The data in the file shows each unique rotation and the stock holding for that rotation

Delivery & Scheduling

The report can be scheduled to run automatically on a daily, weekly or monthly basis or it can be requested via the web site on an ad-hoc real time basis.

It is up to the customers whether this is scheduled.

 

The stock file will normally be emailed to your email address as an attachment to an existing message.

File Name Convention

The filename is dependant on which option the customer select but it will be either

SiteCode_CustomerCode_StkPrdt_datetime         [.csv]     [.xml]    OR

SiteCode_CustomerCode_StkRotn_datetime       [.csv]     [.xml]

Enhanced Versions : 

SiteCode_CustomerCode_StkPrdtE_datetime         [.csv]     [.xml]    OR

SiteCode_CustomerCode_StkRotnE_datetime       [.csv]     [.xml]

Rotation Level

This will list all rotations, so product codes will be shown multiple times, one time for each rotation

File Name Convention

SiteCode_CustomerCode_StkRotn_datetime  

Limitations

Products with ZERO stocks will not be included in this export, this will be introduced from April 2017 onwards

As orders are only issued with final rotation at the picking stage it is not possible to show an allocated stock for a rotation as prior to picking only the product is known.

Stock is considered as stock in warehouse and is not “available to order” quantities

As Vision Warehousing can store Rotations with varying levels of singles per case

...


at rotation level you get the information stored for each rotation.
