Job ID Enter a unique ID if you wish to enter and save the parameters to this procedure for future use. If you only need to run the procedure and do not want to save your entry then you may leave this field empty.

Destination Select the destination for the output from this procedure.

Process Select the method to be used for processing the report. Foreground is always available and must be used when output is directed to anything other than a system printer (i.e. printers spooled through the database on the host computer.) Depending on your setup there may be various batch process queues available in the list that allow you to submit the job for processing in the background or at a predefined time such as overnight. A system printer must be specified when using these queues.

Format Select the format for the output. The availability of other formats depends on what is allowed by each procedure. Possible formats include Text, Excel, Word, PDF, HTML, Comma delimited and Tab delimited.

Layout You may indicate the layout of the printed page by specifying the appropriate setting in this field. Set the value to Portrait if the page is to be oriented with the shorter dimension (usually 8.5 inches) at the top or Landscape if the longer dimension (usually 11 inches) is to be at the top. Portrait will always be available but Landscape is dependent on the output destination and may not be available in all cases.

Copies Enter the number of copies to be printed.

Run Process Click on the button to run the process. This performs the save function which may also be activated by clicking the save button in the tool bar or pressing the F9 key or Ctrl+S.

Months Enter the number of months of usage you want to include in determining if an item is slow moving. For example, if you enter "6" the most recent six months usage history will be totaled to determine if the item qualifies as a slow moving part.

Usage Quantity Enter the quantity to be used in determining if an item is slow moving. For example, if you enter "0" (zero) then only those parts with no usage within the number of months specified will be included in the report. If you enter "10" then anything with usage less than or equal to ten will be included.

Categories Enter all of the part categories to be included in the listing. If you leave this field blank then all categories will be included.

Cost Group Enter the cost group which will be validated against INV.CONTROL and used to determine the cost method for calculating inventory cost on this report. Leave this field empty to use the cost group assigned to the inventory location(s). This would apply only if you have multiple cost groups.

Plan Group Enter the planning group which you wish to use for this report. This field will control the MRP quantities and the available inventory locations to use.
