Overview
This amplified the Required Orders report by adding a new filter to the “Remove from Required Quantity” column to exclude stock on Layaway invoices and work orders and added a department drop down on the settings tab that allows for multi-department selections.
System Five users can select specific department combinations as well as exclude work orders and layaway invoices from the settings of the Required Orders Report. Layaways and/or Work Orders can be used for different purposes depending on your business needs. This new feature will help further filter the report results which will help your ordering be more accurate and also save your staff valuable time.
