Inventory Value

Hello!

 

I am currently working on a report with data from an older version of NAV to display infromation about the inventory but I've hit a snag when it comes to displaying the current inventory value.

 

I got two tables to work with:

Items (Contains item prices, descriptions etc.)

Item Ledger Entry (Contains "Remaining Quantity" which is a series of +1 -1 for each item)

The tables are linked by Item No

 

All i really want to do is multiply the sum of "Remaining Quantity" for each item with the item price but can't figure out how.

you need to relate your tables:

 

and then the measures are easy

 

RemainingQuantity = SUM( Transactions[Quantity] )

 

Value =
         SUMX(
                 Items,

                 [RemainingQuantity] * Items[UnitPrice]
          )

Sample Data:

No | Description | UnitPrice
10  | Adapter |99

 

Entry No | Item No | Quantity | Remaining Quantity
1 | 10 | 1 | 1
2 | 10 | -1 | 0

3 | 10 | 2 | 2

 

Goal:

 

No | Remaining Quantity | Value(Remaining Quanitity * UnitPrice)

10 | 2 | 198

you need to relate your tables:

 

and then the measures are easy

 

RemainingQuantity = SUM( Transactions[Quantity] )

 

Value =
         SUMX(
                 Items,

                 [RemainingQuantity] * Items[UnitPrice]
          )

Hello Gandalf, 

 

If you want to calculate inventory value you should calculate that from the Value entry table. It's more accuarate than the item table.
