One other thing....be proactive in developing and inventory accuracy measurement
that can be posted and seen by all.  I have always thought the Controller should
do this but have very rarely seen it done by anyone other than IS.

Subject:  x-ing negative inventory balances



To the group -

My boss (Dir of Finance) is fed up with negative inventory balances at the
end of the month, and is ready to have me "throw the switch" to not allow
negative inventory.

My question is - what happens to the labor transactions (PMC) when we do
this, and the items issued would cause neg. inventory? Does the transaction
just sit there in error until adequate inventory is received? Any other
implications I need to know about??

I need your responses quickly - next Friday is my boss's last day at the
company, and he is tying up loose ends quickly.  BTW, he just "grinned" when
I pointed out that I'll be the one who gets yelled at when we can't ship
product we haven't "manufactured" yet on the last day of the month!
(grrrrrrrrrr.......)  Can I lock out RM and IP inventory transactions for my
shipping clerk without keeping her from processing shipments correctly
(through COM)??? (She'll just go in and "receive" the MO items so she can
print the shipping papers!)

   Thanks as always  -- Joan
