This video will review the various views in Yellow Dog
Inventory Items Screen
You can change what data is shown on the
inventory items screen by using the Views, Columns, and Filters on the top of
the inventory items screen.
Views
There are fourteen different ways to view the
inventory screen in Yellow Dog Inventory. Your views may vary based on your
permission settings.
Classic – This is
the default setting. It will give you most standard information
All Stores – This
shows on hands/on order for all items in all stores in the database that the
user has access to
Activity – This
shows event dates for the items: Created, First Received, Last Received, First
Sale, Last Sale and Recent Session.
F&B Expiration
– This view shows items with expiration dates set, how much is expired, and the
oldest and newest expiration dates for each item. This view is not typically
used in Retail.
Flags – This
shows standard item information and any assigned flag(s), or inventory storage
locations
Recipe/Kit/Batch Items Only – This
shows all kits, the recipes they are attached to, their ingredients, cost, and
how they behave in the system. This view is not typically used in Retail.
Third Party/Interface
Codes – This view shows all pertinent interface information as of the last
sync and is highly dependent on your POS setup.
Merchandiser –
This view allows for more specific item filtering based on any or all 10
dimensions in Yellow Dog.
Parent/Child –
This view brings up all items with parent/child relationships, their SKUs, On
Hand Counts, and usage.
Problem Items –
This view brings up all items with problems, including no cost or retail price,
duplicate UPCs or missing Vendor information. Pay attention to items with no
cost; these can significantly impact inventory valuation.
Web Items: Lists
all items set to push to and/or pull sales data from an interfaced web cart.
There are additional right-click options in this view for setting web cart
specific properties.
Purchasing – This
view shows On Hand, Size, Vendor ordering information, Par & Reorder Points
and the Vendor Price for each item.
SKU, Vendor SKU and
UPCs – This view shows basic info, plus SKU, Vendor SKU & UPC. Mostly
used by Retail clients or clients with barcode scanners.
Interactive View – Item data fields, such as Long
Description, Size, Color, Vendor SKU, Retail Price, Reorder Point, Par Level,
etc., can be edited directly in this view, similar to how a spreadsheet
behaves. Previous versions of Yellow Dog required a single Vendor to be
selected, but now all Vendors can be displayed at once.
We’ve added more editable fields to the Interactive View in
v367 to allow for quicker and easier updates:
Notes corresponds to the Notes field in the Item Editor’s
Other Details tab.
Reference corresponds to the Reference field in the Item
Editor’s Retail and F&B Details tabs.
