Module Objective
The Stock Card Report module is used to generate a "Stock Card," which is a report that provides a detailed and chronological transaction history for one or more specific items. This report is a fundamental tool for tracking every goods movement (in and out) and validating the ending balance.
1. Report Parameters (Filter)
The main page of this module is a form containing various parameters to customize the report that will be generated.
Here is an explanation for each parameter:
-
Warehouse / Select Bin:
-
Filter the report for a specific warehouse location or bin.
-
-
Item/Service Code:
-
The primary filter to select one or more specific items for which you want to see the stock card.
-
-
Period:
-
Specify the transaction date range in the From and To fields.
-
-
For Accounting:
-
Check Yes if the generated report requires value details or other accounting information.
-
2. Steps to Generate the Report
Step 1: Set Report Parameters
Define the parameters you need, especially selecting the Item/Service Code to be checked and specifying its Period range.
Step 2: Generate the Report
After all parameters are set, click one of the buttons at the bottom:
-
[Display Report]: To preview the stock card directly on your screen.
-
[Export to MS Excel]: To download the report data in an Excel file format.
3. Reading the Report (Report Content)
The generated report is a Stock Card or a subsidiary ledger for the selected item, which begins with a Beginning Balance and details every transaction.
-
Report Content (Conceptual): Although the details are not visible, this report will display:
-
The Beginning Balance.
-
A chronological list of transactions containing In, Out, and Ending Balance columns for quantity.
-
If the "For Accounting" option is selected, the report will also display the value (price) of each movement and the ending inventory value.

This report is very similar to the Inventory Report (Stock Card) that was discussed previously, and most likely presents the same data with a slightly different format or filters.

Use this report to investigate stock discrepancies or to track the complete history of a specific item.

This is a crucial audit report for the Warehouse and Inventory Accounting teams.
