Sage Abra HRMS
Users: Processing Payroll
Timesheets for Employees With Automatic Labor
Allocations. Why aren't pay increases
reflected on the Trial Payroll?
This could happen for one of two
reasons: 1) employee’s previous pay change was not also
changed in the Labor Allocations, or 2) the Charge Date
in the Time Sheet is prior to the employee’s Pay
Effective Date only if you own the Abra HR module. Click

instructions. | |
Sage MAS 90 and 200
Users: Reconcile Stock Status and
Inventory Valuation
Report
The Stock Status
report and Inventory Valuation report generate
information from two different files. The warehouse
detail file (IM2) is the source for the Stock Status
report. This file contains only summary balances of the
inventory inquiries that are on-hand. The item cost
detail file (IM3) is the source for the Inventory
Valuation report. This file contains detailed cost tier
entries for each inventory item receipt (no entries are
made to the IM3 for average cost or standard cost
items). Any form of data corruptions to either one or
both of these files may cause quantity on-hand
information to be inaccurate or inconsistent. This
utility can be used when the inventory quantities
on-hand reflected on the Stock Status do not agree with
the quantities on-hand reflected on the Inventory
Valuation report. Learn
