Scenario:
Retail POS still allow to sell unavailable items. How to check item availability and prevent selling unavailable one.Inventory On-hand & Item Bar code
When I have 2 physical inventory quantity of Item No. 81137 (with variant): -I also create item bar codes matched all variants:-
Calculate inventory
After that we need to calculate inventory from Retail > Period > Calculate inventory. And then run job "Products, prices, and bar codes"Sale item
Scan bar code 81183736BR with 2 quantities and pay cash.But when I re-scan the same bar code, POS still allow me to sell it. It shouldn't do, right?
Creates SQL Views
After inventory calculation, the table RetailInventAvailability manages available quantities based on inventory dimension. But because of I have various items (both product / product master subtype), so I have to create views that cover all products.There are 3 main SQL views: -
- PKARETAILSALESTYPE queries retail transaction ID for sales type
- PKARETAILINVENTVARIANT queries inventory dimension based on table RetailInventAvailability
- PKARETAILINVENTSTOCK queries all available items based on table RetailInventAvailability and quantity in stock
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[PKARETAILSALESTYPE]
AS
SELECT TRANSACTIONID, SALEISRETURNSALE
FROM dbo.RETAILTRANSACTIONTABLE AS TRANS
WHERE (TYPE = 2) AND (ENTRYSTATUS IN (0, 2))
AND EXISTS

OK, now we can see available / unavailable items. I will explain in next blog how to use them to prevent selling unavailable items.
