The inventory calculation includes the calculation of the purchase control values for each item/warehouse combination in the selection. When you execute this routine you update the Forecast file with period forecasts, and the Item file with year forecast, economic order quantity (EOQ), reorder point (ROP) and safety stock (SST).
The inventory calculation can only be run for the base supply plan version (*BASE). It will only include the items that are connected to the supply plan.
Note: The inventory calculation can also be run from DC1 Inventory Control. In that case, the calculation includes all items for which Supply plan is set to YES in the Item file. See About working with inventory calculations for information about the calculation and how to run it from DC1 Inventory Control.
