PREFACE
These labs were prepared for the purpose of demonstrating basic Inventory functions. They were developed
to assist an applications support analyst by:
Listing initial step by step instructions for data entry within the Inventory application to familiarize
a support analyst with the features and functions of common Inventory movements and
application maintainance
Performing common inventory functions that all customers perform, such as defining and
maintaining items, issuing and receiving stock (items) into inventory, and performing stock (item)
replenishment.
Reinforcing Inventory concepts and functional issues that were discussed during class lectures
