Use this program to obtain a report of the status and valuation of all items in inventory. The user selects the cost (standard, average, last or manual) used to determine valuation.
Serial/Lot Item Costing
You now have the ability to cost serial and lot items by the system cost (costing method for the module). The feature provides for GAAP compliance. For the FACTS SO, IC and MC modules, you can decide if the cost for serial and lot items will be averaged actual (as it has always operated in the past) or system cost (costing method for the module). The default setting for each Static Control F/M is A-Averaged Actual (same behavior as they have before the monthly is applied). Users who want to take advantage of this change will need to change the option to S-System Cost for each of the applicable modules. The net result of selecting S-System Cost is that serial/lot items will be costed like non-serial/lot items. The results of this program are affected by this selection.

A Rank range can be set at the company level, alone, or, it can also be set at a warehouse level. When the rank is set at the company level, the rank information is displayed in the header of the report (and indicates what the type is, either ‘Percentage’ or ‘Hit Count’) and the range that makes up each of the 5 possible entries (A – E). When the warehouse level is set, the warehouse level rank over-rides the company level rank with its own rank values and type of hit count. The Warehouse Rank value only prints on the report when a rank range is specified at the warehouse level.
In the three formats, item and report totals and the total number of items listed are printed. If the print order selected is vendor, the report prints item class totals within vendor and vendor totals. If the print order selected is item class, the report prints vendor totals within item class and item class totals.
FACTS Report Formatter and Multiple Output Options

The FACTS Report Formatter allows you to expand your reporting capabilities beyond defining a printer (in Printer F/M).
