IC150


IC150 - Movement Analysis - Cost

**Form Purpose
Run Movement Analysis - Cost (IC150) to print a report of the total cost and
suggests movement classes based on total cost percentages. By default the
total issue and sales cost is used, but you can optionally include transfer
and adjustment costs.

**Processing Effect
You define what percentage of total costs must be met by movement class 1, 2,
and 3. For example, if you assign 70, 20, and 10 to movement class 1, 2 and 3
this program assigns class 1 to items that make up 70 percent of total issue
costs, class 2 to items that make up the next 20 percent of the total and
class 3 to items that make up the last 10 percent of total issue costs. You do
not have to assign a percentage to each movement class. However, the total
percentage assigned must equal 100 percent. Examples include 50/50, 80/15/5,
and 60/40.

This program requires you to enter a period and year range for which to
analyze inventory movement. For example, enter

1 1993 - 4 1993

to analyze inventory movement for the first four periods in 1993. This form
also provides an update option which lets you update suggested movement
classes to the Item Location records in IC12.1 (Item Location).

You select the items affected by this form by location, report group, and/or
inventory class. You can also specify a cost cutoff amount and/or include
items set up as inactive in the Item Master file (IC11.1) or Item Location
file (IC12.1). If you specify a cost cutoff amount, this program excludes
items with issues costs that fall below the cost specified.

Note Summarized inventory history does not include sales prices for
make-to-order kit components. This report is invalid for these items.
