Update Movement Class

Form ID: (IN506100)

You use this form to make mass changes to the movement class assignments for inventory items at a particular warehouse. Movement class assignments are based on the turnover of each item during the selected turnover period. When you update movement class assignments on this form, the system assigns the projected movement class to each item, based on the movement class definitions and the position of the item in the list of warehouse items, which are arranged by turnover rate in the selected period. For more information, see Inventory Ranking Methods.

You define movement classes on the Movement Classes (IN208600) form. You can initially assign the movement classes to items stored at the specific warehouse manually on the General tab of the Item Warehouse Details (IN204500) form.

On this form, you can view the list of inventory items with pending movement class assignments and update the assignments for the listed items. Items with a fixed movement class are also listed, but their assignments are not updated automatically.
