Reseting Inventory Quantity On hand and Quantity Available in Inventory

During a normal implementation, customers using the Inventory module are faced with testing numerous transaction scenarious prior to going live with their Dynamics GP system. However, the conversion to the live company requires transfering the Inventory Master tables, including the Item Quantity Master (IV00102) table. This table hosts the Quantity On Hand and Quantity Available fields per site which can already be affected by the transactions previously tested.

In order to reset the values in these fields without any SQL query involved (ok, not completely), you can try this simple solution: create a physical count for all items!

1) Create a stock count schedule for all items. Go to Transactions > Inventory > Stock Count Schedule. Enter a Stock Count ID, i.e., CLRQTYS.
2) Mass Add all items in your inventory by any criteria
3) Start the count by clicking on the Start button. Close the Stock Count Schedule window.
NOTE: you can choose to uncheck the Reuse Stock Count checkmark.
4) Open the Stock Count Entry window. Go to Transactions > Inventory > Stock Count Entry. Mark all items as counted without entering any values (they are automatically defaulted to zero).

NOTE: If the company has a great number of products, the items can be marked as counted with the following SQL script

declare @stockcountID char(20)
set @stockcountID = 'CLRQTYS' -- replace for the actual stock count you createdupdate IV10300
set ATPSTVRNC = 1 where stckcntid = @stockcountID
update IV10301 set VERIFIED = 1 where stckcntid = @stockcountID5)

Post the count.
Click on the Process button to process and post the count.Now you are good to transfer your Inventory Master tables!
