ODBC/QODBC - Inventory by bin location

Has anyone attempted to pull a report/data table using excel/ODBC driver to get inventory by bin location similar to the report in QB Enterprise?

 

Example: The "inventory by bin location" report in quickbooks is a great report. However, it's not easily customizable, and even more so, in excel when you export the report. So, i am trying to pull this data into excel using the ODBC and microsoft query. However, I can't seem to find a table or multiple tables to use when performing the query. I.E. the "itemsite" table doesn't actually provide quantity on hand at all. the "itemInventory" table pulls in company-wide quantity on hand. We have multiple locations, and any inventory part might be in multiple bins/locations within that geographical location.

 

So, is it possible to create a report or data table using this method to have matching data? I.e. i want my table to show the exact same quantity on hand for a given bin/location as quickbooks shows me in it's internal reporting.

 

any and all help is greatly appreciated

ODBC/QODBC - Inventory by bin location

Hi there martymj08,

 

It's vital that all the information in your books be up to date so that your financials can be accurate. QuickBooks Desktop is a great software able to be connected with different apps and plugins in order to help with other processes outside of the program itself. I can point you in the right direction for assistance with your third-party driver.

 

For help in exporting data with your QODBC program, I recommend reaching out to their support team for assistance. They'll be able to provide some information as to the capabilities of their driver in order to maximize the use of their software. Other users from the community that has experience using the same driver as you might also chime in here in order to give you some insight about how to get this information to export in the way you've described.
