MI210: Inventory Value
The MI210 report displays the value of selected inventory as of the end of the selected day. Inventory value is determined by looking at the wholesale value of an item at the time it was received, counted, sold, etc. Changing the wholesale value of a product after its inventory value has been accounted for does not change your overall inventory value.
How does Meevo calculate Inventory Value?
See our Inventory Value topic for details on the various ways Meevo assigns values to products that were added to or removed from your inventory.
When is inventory value calculated?
Many changes can occur to your inventory throughout the course of a business day. Sales, refunds, inventory counts, purchase order receivables, employee supply usage, and many other factors can affect inventory value, sometimes changing it minute-by-minute. To account for this, and to provide you with a useful and accurate metric, Meevo calculates your inventory value every night. This way, you will always know an accurate inventory value as of the end of each day. This is why you cannot run the MI210 for today's date; today's inventory value will not be calculated until tonight. To find out what your inventory value is at the end of today, you'll run the MI210 tomorrow and select today's date.
Where can I see my inventory value?
To view details regarding your inventory value:
- Run the MI210: Inventory Value report to learn your inventory value as of the end of the previous day.
- Run the Inventory Adjustments Data Export to view, by product, every event that affected a product’s on-hand count within the date range.
Are Product Bundles included in this report?
Product Bundles do not appear as their own line items in the report. Instead, the products that make up bundles are counted and their inventory value is reported on. As a result, a product's on-hand amount in Stock Levels may not always match the on-hand amount displayed in the MI210. For example, the Stock Levels screen may tell you that you have 3 of a particular product on-hand. However, if we assume that 2 of this product are already in an assembled Product Bundle, then the MI210 on-hand amount for that product will read 5 (3 on the shelf + 2 in Product Bundles). Note that the accompanying Inventory Values also account for the contents of Product Bundles.

Each PDF report you run will open its own browser tab, so you can easily review and compare reports by simply jumping between browser tabs.
