SORTING BIN LOCATIONS ON QB ENTERPRISE 21

Hello there, @67FARMER. I'm here to guide you sort bin locations when printing in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).

 

To get the desired data, you can filter the report to show 10 bin locations. Let me guide you how:

 

  1. Open your QBDT program and go to the Lists menu.
  2. Select Inventory Site List.
  3. Next, go to the Reports drop-down and select Inventory Sales by Site.
  4. Once the report is opened, click the Customize Report button.
  5. Then, head to the Filters tab. From there, type Inventory Site in the search bar.
  6. Select the Inventory Site drop-down and choose Multiple Inventory sites.
  7. Mark the bin location you want to be displayed on the report. Then, click OK twice.
  8. Next, click the Print option and choose Report.
  9. In the Settings tab, check the Landscape and Fit report to __ page(s) wide options.
  10. Once done, select Print.

 

To get more details about customizing and printing inventory reports in QBDT, feel free to visit this article: Customize reports in QuickBooks Desktop. 

 

You can also export your report as Excel workbooks to apply additional customization such as adding and removing columns. To do so, please visit this link: Export reports as Excel workbooks in QuickBooks Desktop. 

 

I'm always around to help if you have any other concerns with sorting bin locations in QBDT. Feel free to visit the Community space again. Have a good one.

Good day, @67FARMER.

 

Thanks for sharing a screenshot of your concern. Let me join in this conversation and help you sort out the bin locations in your reports. 

 

For the steps shared by my colleague DivinaMercy_N, you have to enable first the Multiple Inventory Sites feature. This way, you'll see Inventory Site List from the List menu. I'll show you how:
 

  1. Click the Edit menu and select Preferences.
  2. From the Items & Inventory section, click Company Preferences.
  3. Select Advanced Inventory Settings and check the box for Multiple Inventory Sites is enable.
  4. Click OK.

Once done, you can now follow the rest of the steps to filter the report and show 10 bin locations. 

 

By setting your own preferences, you can also customize reports in QuickBooks to fit your personal style and business needs.

In case you want to take your reports out of QuickBooks and analyze them in Microsoft Excel, simply save them as Excel workbooks (.xlsx), CSV spreadsheets, or PDFs. 

 

Let me know if you need further assistance in handling your data in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT). I'll be more than happy to help. Have a good one.

okay i got to that but can't seem to make it do a section of 10. Like if i wanted to count bins 10-20. i how i put that in. i get the report to show bin 120 but not in succession.

also how do i get bin 1 or bin 2 or bin 3 without listing all bins that have a 1 or 2 in the bin location. So our bin locations are simple 1-335 with some that have words like van or wall.

Let's continue customizing your report to print a certain number of bin locations, @67FARMER.

 

You'll have to manually select the number of bin locations to show up on your report before printing. Saying you need a list from 1-10, you'll have to choose them individually. I've got you these screenshots for reference.

 

 

 

I'm adding this reference with topics you can use to understand more about your inventory reports: Create and Run Inventory Reports in QuickBooks Enterprise Suite.

We set BIN locations as a custom field when you set the part up in inventory

Hey there, @67FARMER

 

Thanks for reaching back out to the Community. I appreciate you giving us some background of how you set the BIN locations up in your inventory. 

 

At this time, custom fields don't sort by numbers or the way you requested. The best way to see the information on the report is by using the steps and details my colleagues gave above. 

 

I'll go ahead and send feedback to our Product Developers so they can consider this in the next available update. You can always keep a eye out on our Blog site to see what's new in the product. 

 

For future reference, check out this guide about customizing reports.

 

Please let us know if you have any other questions. I want to ensure that all of your concerns are addressed. Bye for now!
