This report is a printable report that re-generates the maximum and minimum levels of stock of selected parts in the stock file. The report can be run as a report only or as an update report. You are also asked if you want to zero the monthly demand and save the newly generated monthly demand. This option should only be done at the end of the month. Typically this report runs monthly in the timed operations chain.
