Inventory sales summary

The sales report shows line item summaries of the current stock  level, and all sales for the current month, year, and past two year  totals.

Items are identified by partnumber and description.

This  report enables the manager to track the sales performance as a  measure of time, and identify parts which may be declining in need.

Stocking levels may be determined by viewing the actual sales  pattern.  If an item has a low month-to-date rate, and the current  year is less than past years (considering prorated sales based on the  time of the year), it may be wise to lower the stocking level of the  item.  Otherwise, large inventories may develop of unsalable items.
