Which Inventory Control reports will provide Vendor
Analysis information?
The following Inventory Control reports have been enhanced to include the new
Vendor Analysis fields:

Full Stock Details

Stock Inspection Status
The Stock Inspection Status report has also been modified to include the
sample plan, sample percentage and the calculated quantity to inspect for each
batch – the calculated sample quantity will always be rounded up, therefore, a
sample percentage of 30%, for example, will produce a calculated sample
quantity of 1 for a batch quantity of 1
Note: For batches that have been received via Purchase Receipts, the information
from the Supplier Information file will be used for the report, for batches received
via Works Order Completion, the Stock file will be used for the report
