Don't let the name fool you! Product Price Check does give you all set prices and sale prices for each location and price level, but it also gives you product costs, inventory position, Invoice and Work Order popup notes, and on the Recent Activity tab a list of "lasts" (last sold, last purchased, etc.) all in one window. You'll also find links to the Product Summary report which displays similar information in a printable format. There's also shortcuts to the Price History and Cost History reports.
Tip
If you check a lot of products, you might find it handy to add the Product Price Check shortcut button to your toolbar.
Quantity Remaining refers to the number of units remaining that have cost history.
Quantity on Hand refers to the number of actual units remaining in inventory - whether they have an associated cost history or not.
Allocation is based on the current fiscal year.
Selling into the Negatives (Quantity Remaining = 0 and Quantity on Hand < 0)
Selling more than the number of units in stock completely depletes cost history (so there are 0 units with a cost remaining) but the quantity on hand is -5 (for example).
Bill and Hold (Quantity Remaining < Quantity on Hand)
B&H invoices use up cost history right away, but don't affect the quantity on hand (that happens later when the units are taken).
Estimated Cost Rows have not been filled by Cost History (Quantity Remaining > Quantity On Hand)
This can happen when you have units on hand that came from a location transfer or from manufacturing (because of the possibility of an "endless loop" cost history isn't automatically allocated for those transactions).
