Normally the system prevents the quantity of an item from being adjusted below zero, but this selection (which defaults to include negative qty items) ensures that any items that do have a negative quantity are included on the report.
• Sort By Loc/Prodline: This selection allows you to specify the output sequence to be used for the report. The report defaults to output the selected inventory items in Location then Item Number Order. If a check is entered for this selection, the items will be output in Loc/Prodline/Item Number order.
