Why:
The Financial Stock Report allows you to view the opening and closing stock balances for a particular period, and also identifies all stock movements for a selected date range. In doing this, it can provide a method of ascertaining a stock valuation as at a particular moment in time. The report relies on a data collection procedure to be run on a daily basis (as part of the daily batch routine) in order to calculate the current stock balance at the end of each day. The entry in the daily batch is essential for running this report! The report will show the opening stock balance (i.e. the stock balance as at the last period end) and also the closing stock balance (i.e. the stock balance as at the last end of day run).
