NOTE: When comparing inventory values to the General Ledger Value do not forget that the items in the Inventory File only represent the Stocked items. Items purchased for jobs will already be included in the inventory asset GL (if on Cost of Goods) or the inventory cost GL (if on Merchandise Purchased). So it is suggested that along with the Inventory Value report also run a report to identify non-inventoried items on open orders (items that have been purchased for the job or salesorder but not billed out yet).
Go to Open Orders, [F7] Print, D. print non stock parts on workorders to get the value of items purchased but not in inventory.
Also remember that items Returned to Vendors but not yet credited on payable will affect your Inventory $ amount on the Balance Sheet.

notice the Extended Cur+Old has a more accurate value since it is taking into consideration the Old Cost and Old Quantity.

NOTE: if you have the VEHICLE SALES MODULE (VSM) before P. for preview select O. options and Z. stock type and set it to 1 to only get parts not vehicles
