Auto-adjusting Negative Stock upon GRN

When receiving stock via a GRN - Goods Received Note - in BlueBox ERP you have the option of auto-allocating the items to any Despatch Notes that have gone out within the past few hours where the stock was not available and therefore the items were marked as negative stock.

This effectively rectifies any stock that was shipped urgently before it could be recorded as received - and only happens when using the ePOS (Point of Sale) module which allows this to happen.

In order to enable this setting set the bbsetting as follows:

bb_procurement_goods_received_notes > bbsetting_grn_auto_adjust_negative_stock_within_x_hours

Set it to the number of hours prior to each GRN that you want to check for FNS Despatch Notes.
 - ie 24 would check for any DSP's that were issued within the past 24 hours whenever a GRN is captured.

Forced Non-stock (or Negative Stock) is recorded and viewed in the Forced Non-Stock Report - this report has an indicator at the top to show if the bbsetting is activated for the system or not.

When each item is auto-corrected it's value/qty in this report is reduced to zero and a link is provided to view the source GRN that performed the auto-correction. Note: these lines still remain in the FNS report so that audit trails can be done reflecting that an item was initially maked as FNS and later auto corrected.
