The report shows per buffer and per time bucket the inventory profile: the starting inventory, the material consumed, the material produced and the ending inventory.
If the report is opened for a single buffer an inventory graph is displayed.
The rows in the report are defined such that following equations apply:
- end inventory = start inventory + produced – consumed
- start inventory = end inventory of the previous time bucket
