Use this program to obtain a report of all items whose available quantities are at or above their maximum stocking levels. The available quantity is defined as the on hand minus committed quantity. The surplus for order point/line point is defined as the available less order quantity plus line point. It represents the number of months you should expect to go before you sold all surplus stock.

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.
