Feature - Utility to Reset Item PTD/YTD Fields from Location History
The Rest Item PTD from Location History now has the option to also reset the Year-To-Date and Last Year accumulators in addition to the Period-To-Date accumulators. These fields are also reset from the I/M Location History file (IMLOCHST).

If you miss the proper timing to reset the Item PTD/YTD fields, you can now use this utility to reset the Item PTD/YTD fields for any reason.
You can perform this reset by going to Global Setup, Utilities, Generate Statistic Info, Generate, and Reset Item PTD from Location History. The following screen will appear:
Reset Item PTD? - Answer Y or N. The field defaults to N. Answer Y to reset the period to date usage, quantity sold, sales, and cost.
Reset Item YTD/Last Year? Answer Y or N. The field defaults to N. Answer Y to reset the year to date usage, quantity sold, sales, and cost. It will also reset the last year usage and sales.
The reset of the Year To Date and Last Year fields will take into consideration the Use Calendar Year Or Fiscal Year field found in System Utilities, Global Setup, System, and System Period Control.
Be aware that running this utility does not update the Item History File nor does it advance the Current Period in IM Setup.
