Dashboard indicators

Three counters top the stocks of the dashboard. They speak of the whole current warehouse, and not of the page displayed below them. This page gives their exact definition.

The common scope

The three counters start from the same set of items. An item enters it when all the points below are true:

Condition Detail
Ownership The item belongs to your organization
Nature The item is storable
Archiving Neither the item, nor its subfamily, nor its family is archived
Planning The item has at least one planning on a location of the current warehouse
Location That location is a leaf: it is the parent of no other location of the warehouse

Why parent locations are excluded

A parent location groups its children; counting both would amount to counting the same quantity twice. The module therefore retains only the terminal locations.

The three counters

Indicator Definition
Tracked items Number of distinct items of the scope above
Below minimum Number of items for which at least one leaf location holds a quantity lower than or equal to the minimum stock of the planning of that location
Out of stock Number of items for which the sum of the quantities over all leaf locations is zero or negative

A location without a stock line counts as a quantity of zero.

A nested reading

The three counters contain one another, from the widest to the narrowest:

Out of stock ⊆ Below minimum ⊆ Tracked items

An item out of stock has nothing anywhere: it is therefore necessarily below its minimum, which cannot be negative. And an item below its minimum is, by construction, a tracked item.

Below minimum does not mean to be ordered

The threshold compared is the minimum stock of the planning, location by location. An item plentiful in the back room but empty on a shelf is counted below minimum, because one of the two locations is.

Display

Situation What is displayed
Counters not read yet Three waiting areas, and not three zeros
Below minimum greater than zero The number, in a warning badge
Out of stock greater than zero The number, in a danger badge
Counter at zero The number, without colour
Reading refused An error message specific to the counters; the grid keeps what it was displaying

Refreshing

Event The counters are read again
Change of current warehouse Yes
Conversion of an item Yes
Filtering of the stock grid No
Change of page of the grid No

The filter and the pagination concern only the displayed list; the counters, for their part, speak of the whole warehouse and therefore have no reason to move.
