Parts sales

The Parts report is an itemized listing of all items which were sold  during the specified period of time.  All items of like partnumber  are combined to provide total sales quantities, and earnings.  This report will be particularly useful to the parts manager, who  can review it for sales patterns, and fast moving items.

This  information is particularly useful when making purchasing  decisions, and calculating minimums and

stocking levels.  A helpful feature of this report is the fact that it marks all  non-inventory items with an *.  Therefore, as one scans the report,  and sees special order items with large quantities, it will seem  reasonable that the part so noted might well be stocked in  inventory.  Such an action results in savings because these items  can be obtained at lower prices in volume.

Parts reports can be run for any period of time.  It is best,  however, to run a report for each month, and store the paper copies  in a file for later review and reference.
