| Show/Hide Hidden Text |
A matrix consists of a Header and individual Matrix items. These can be deleted entirely or in part, however they MUST have a stock count of 0.00 for each component. Any inventory item with a stock count cannot be deleted.
In this example, one item has a stock count.
When you choose the Delete button at the far right, you are notified that the Matrix Header cannot be deleted.
TIP: Print a current stock count of the matrix items before making any deletions, then you can add the stock counts back as needed.

Option - Use the Physical Inventory Listing to edit the Header Stock Counts How To
1) Open the Inventory Center 2) Choose Actions: Physical Inventory from the blue menu at left. 3) Find and highlight the Matrix header of the desired item. a) If you highlight the header you can change the stock counts off ALL items in the matrix. Note: Type = Matrix Header b) if you highlight the individual item you can change the stock count of just that ONE item. c) choose Verify/Adjust to make the change in stock count
4) Select the Verify/Adjust button in the upper right of the screen. 5) This will open the Matrix and show only the stock counts of each item in the matrix. CAUTION: Before changing the stock quantities, you may want to print a report showing the current stock counts so that the counts can be added back after the Matrix Header is deleted. |
