ColumnMeaning
On HandPhysical inventory currently in stock at relevant warehouse locations
Committed (All)Quantity already reserved across active (not yet completed) work orders. The work order Bill of Materials tab also shows Committed (WO) — the portion reserved for that work order
Inc. AvailableIncoming quantity on open purchase orders that is not yet allocated to any work order
Inc. AllocatedIncoming PO quantity reserved for this run's work orders via Allocate from Incoming
RequiredTotal component quantity needed across work orders in the production run
ShortageRequired − Available − Inc. Allocated — gap still to fill
AvailableOn Hand minus Committed (All) — stock not reserved by any work order (can be negative)

How they work together

  1. On Hand is what you physically have today.
  2. Committed (All) is spoken for by production jobs.
  3. Inc. Available is on order from suppliers — use Allocate from Incoming to claim it.
  4. Inc. Allocated is on order and already claimed for this run.
  5. Shortage is what you still need to buy or receive.

Status affects the calculation

For Draft/Planned work orders, Luminous also considers uncommitted available stock plus this WO's committed qty.

For In Progress work orders, only this WO's committed qty and allocated incoming count — inventory is already locked for production.
