Aged Stock Analysis
The Aged Stock Analysis report illustrates how long each Item has been in stock. It is calculated on a FIFO basis. The report shows for each Item the Item Number and Name, the total stock level and the stock level for each ageing period, as defined in the specification window. The report supports up to six ageing periods.

- By default and as shown in the illustration, the Age Limit 1 will be set to 30 and the Age Limit 2 will be set to 60. This will result in a report with three columns showing stock aged 0-30 days, 31-60 days and 61 days and over.
- If you would like the first column in the report to show stock that arrived today (or on the Date specified above), enter 0 as the Age Limit 1. If you then enter 30 as the Age Limit 2, the second column in the report will show stock that is between 1 and 30 days old.
- The age of the stock is taken from the Goods Receipt date. If you have any returned stock, its age will depend on whether you are using the Insert at Original Position in Cost Queue option in the Cost Accounting setting.
- Only with Balance
- Use this option to ensure only Items of which you have stock (positive or negative) will be listed.
