Good to know
- An item appears here once something has happened to it at this location: a count, a delivery, waste, a transfer or a sale. Until then it isn't listed, so you can't set its par. Count it first.
- On hand can go below zero when sales use more than your last count showed. The next count sets it right.
- Last counted changes only when the item is counted. Deliveries and sales don't change it.
- Deleted items stay listed with their last on hand and par.
- Each location has its own stock and par levels, including items shared with all locations.
- To see what the stock is worth, open On-hand value in Inventory reports.
