INV Onhand Quantities - Case Study & Technical Analysis
Executive Summary
The INV Onhand Quantities report is the definitive “Stock Status” report for Oracle Inventory. It provides a detailed snapshot of exactly what is in the warehouse right now. Unlike simple stock lists, this report exposes the rich attributes of on-hand inventory, including Lot numbers, Serial numbers, Reservations, LPNs (License Plates), and Statuses.
Business Challenge
Knowing “we have 100 units” is rarely enough. Operations teams need to know:
- Availability: “We have 100, but how many are already reserved for other orders?”
- Location: “Which specific bin are they in?”
- Quality: “Are any of them expired or on Quality Hold?”
- Traceability: “Do we have the specific serial number the customer is asking for?”
Solution
The INV Onhand Quantities report provides a multi-dimensional view of stock. It joins the core quantity tables with all the attribute tables to provide a complete picture of inventory health.
Key Features:
- Granularity: Shows stock at the Subinventory, Locator, Lot, and Serial level.
- Availability Calculation: Displays “Quantity on Hand” vs. “Quantity Available to Transact” (Onhand - Reserved).
- Attribute Visibility: Includes Expiration Dates, Material Status, and Cost Group information.
Technical Architecture
The report queries the live on-hand balance tables, which are the most critical and heavily indexed tables in the Inventory schema.
Key Tables and Views
MTL_ONHAND_QUANTITIES_DETAIL: The primary table storing current stock balances.MTL_RESERVATIONS: Used to calculate the “Reserved” quantity.MTL_LOT_NUMBERS: Lot attributes.MTL_SERIAL_NUMBERS: Serial attributes.WMS_LICENSE_PLATE_NUMBERS: Container (LPN) details.
Core Logic
- Balance Retrieval: Selects from
MTL_ONHAND_QUANTITIES_DETAIL. - Reservation Netting: Subqueries
MTL_RESERVATIONSto determine how much of that stock is hard-allocated. - Status Check: Checks
MTL_MATERIAL_STATUSESto see if the stock is transactable. - Costing: Can join to
CST_ITEM_COSTSto provide the value of the on-hand stock.
Business Impact
- Customer Service: Enables accurate promising of orders by showing true availability.
- Warehouse Efficiency: Reduces “search time” by pinpointing exact locations.
- Waste Reduction: Helps identify expiring lots before they become unsalable.
