3.12.1.� Unbalanced QOH by Class Code

Unbalanced Quantity on Hand (QOH) can occur in Item Sites that are either Multiple Location Control (MLC) or Lot/Serial Number controlled. If the summarized QOH value does not equal the detailed QOH value, then an Item Site of these types will be considered unbalanced. By design, QOH should not become unbalanced. However, if Inventory is not distributed properly—as in the case, for example, when a computer is turned off before a transaction is completed—then QOH can become unbalanced. This display enables you to view these discrepancies and take corrective action. To correct discrepancies, use the Balance Item Site utility available from the right-click menu. To display unbalanced Quantity on Hand by Class Code, select the "Unbalanced QOH by Class Code" option. The following screen will appear:
