Bookshelf v7.5: About Inventory Periods

Siebel Samples Management provides three types of inventory periods for maximum flexibility. These period types are described in Table 29.

Table 29. Samples Inventory Periods
Period Type	Description
Active	The current period; it shows no end date and it is not reconciled. You can enter any type of samples transaction, including adding new products; inventory counts will be adjusted accordingly.
Inactive	A past, unreconciled period; it shows an end date but has not been reconciled yet. Except for adding new products into inventory, you can enter any type of samples transaction.
Reconciled	A past, inactive period; reconciled periods will not display on the handheld application.
