    Usage Exception Reports

    Application Overview

     It is often valuable to know which items in an inventory are experi­eSncing exceptional usage, either much greater, or much less than the forecast usage.

     The Usage Exceptions Report application allows you to choose a particular inventory class (A, B, or C) and to have a report printed for that class showing all items which have varied from the forecast usage by whatever percent you choose.

     For additional information on ABC Analysis, please see the in the Item File Maintenance section.

     The items are selected for the report by calculating the ratio of the sum of errors to the average error for that item and comparing that figure to the one you enter.

     

    Run Instructions

     Select Usage Exceptions Report from the pull down I/M Reports window.  The following screen will then be displayed:
