Inventory report columns

I realise that the Item name can only be 30 characters but the description can be 255. However, I want to produce a report of our inventory that shows the Item code, Name or Description, Quantity of stock on hand, Orders in the system and available stock. There is no option to use the Description instead of name. Our staff have asked me to show our unique code for each item, but the only way I see to add another column is to add a custom list which is a drop down box. We have about 300 unique codes so I can't set up a drop down box. Any ideas on how to show our code since the field length is not long enough to add it there?

    Hi Judy01

     

    You can add the item description to almost all inventory reports on the AccountRight desktop. However, the item code cannot be included in most reports. A workaround is to include the item code in the description and add it as a column. To add the item description, go to the Insert/Modify window and click the Show/Hide button to choose the columns you want in the report. I recommend reading through this guide to help customise your reports.
