Add Line to Inventory Movement Details Report
The inventory movement details report offers me the Quantity in, Quantity Out, and Cost in, but what I really need to see is the Retail Value In. I imagine that adding this line to the report would not be a difficult task but the benefits it would offer me would be huge.
The way in which we use Cin7 Core is very unique to the business we operate. As a service company, we bill our clients monthly for the goods used in maintaining the account through the month. To manage this, we utilize Stock Transfers to designated locations for goods used in the accounts throughout the month. Once the month comes to an end and we are ready to bill, we export the contents of each account bin and invoice accordingly. The process has been successful for us, granted there are limitations due to the unusual manner in which we use the system to function to our needs.
My request is to add one line ("Price Tier 1 - In”) to the Inventory Movement Details report. Seeing the total retail value transferred into each account would allow me to filter by reference field to accurately track the commission as well as weekly sales.
Alternatively, I see value in considering the addition of a service friendly platform. With few on the market, there is a constant need for “creative solutions” to track inventory for a company like ours. My personal suggestion would be to implement a “Continuous sales order” which can be updated through the month for each customer via remote access such as the mobile app. I personally use a Zapier integration to facilitate remote stock transfers which would work well to facilitate remote sales order updating by line item as they are used. Another method would include the ability to “merge” sales orders which would successfully accomplish the same desired outcome. A third potential option would be to add line-item support to the Zapier workflow which already allows sales orders to be updated but not the items specifically.
I have included several suggestions for improvement however I would like to reiterate my primary desire which is to add "Price Tier 1 - In” to the Inventory movement details report.
