I want to be able to keep a real time account of general supplies.   How am  I supposed to increase and decrease inventory as we buy it and  use it?
 
Example:  Safety glasses  
 
         IN-A  shows
On Hand  ...................0
On PO    ....................0
Work in Process ......336    (which is the qty I have ordered over the last few years)
 
Why is the Qty of  336 on WIP and not reflected in On Hand?  
I dont't  understand why safety glasses are going to WIP.  How do I make them go directly to  On Hand?  Am I doing something wrong when I recieve them in  PO-C?
 
Also, how do I tell DBA that I gave out 12 pair of safety glasses today, so that DBA will reduce the qty on hand?   I suppose we need to manually take inventory at he end of the month and make the manual adjustment in IN-K,  unless we go to bar code.
 
 
 
Thanks,
Laura

Yes that is the reason.
