This optional activity is used to group inventory transaction report types. Inventory transaction report groups can be used as input parameters when scheduling to create inventory documents. Using the groups as parameters it is possible to reduce the number of scheduled background jobs.
The direction(+,-, or 0) will control the transactions the report type can be connected to. The report type can only be connected to inventory transactions with the same direction. It is not possible to change the direction for a particular type once the record is saved. When connecting an inventory transaction report type to an inventory transaction report group, it is possible, only to connect types corresponding to the defined direction of the report group.
To create a new report group from Inventory Transaction Report Basic Data page, create a new record in the Report Group list. To connect the desired report type, create a new record in the Report Type field and select the desired value from the List of Values.
The required report types must be predefined in the system.
As a result of this activity, the system groups the report types.
