About
The Inventory Summary app provides an overview of the outstanding stock in and stock out inventory of all of your physical trades based on the contract and actual quantity of your stock, as well as futures positions. It allows you to view your inventory summary based on "Contract" or "Title Transfer Date" as well as "Last Week" or "Last Month" inventory stock count.
Please note that Scope 操作范围 in the Stock Management function is a key value to calculating “STOCK QTY” in this “INVENTORY SUMMARY” app. Only “EXTERNAL” row qty will be used to sum up.
Scope 操作范围: Used to identify if the transaction is from/to external party/counterparties (real delivery) or action internally/in-house stock action. It will be used for calculating the stock in/stock out quantity from/to external party.
External: Any purchase or sale transaction with external party/stock in/out from counterparties
Internal: Everything else not mentioned in External/in-house stock action e.g., change from warrant to physical cargo or change warehouse etc

In Group Dashboard, only group members can access the shared models/reports.
