[BSOFacilityBookCharge] Quant Management (end user guide)


A quant is a nameable quantity of a particular material with the same characteristics in a storage bin.

For example, if there is a quantity of the same material with two different batch numbers in one storage bin, then there are 2 quants in this storage bin.


You can find the  Quant Management in the main menu under Materials Management / Change Stock / Quant.
