MI has nothing in Receiving.

  • How days are counted: from when the oldest inventory tag for that part in that location was created, so a part topped up since then still shows its oldest date.
  • Still on hand: all of this counts toward on-hand quantity even though it hasn't been put away.
  • Perishables: the 384 eggs (BP204) at 85 days and the 100 lbs of cookie dough (MB2200) at 34 days are the lines I'd check first.
