Period
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
In Tryton a stock *Period* is used to group together the all stock moves that
|
|
happened up to a specific date and that were also done after the date of any
|
|
previous stock *Period*.
|
|
|
|
This allows the stock levels for the `Products <concept-product>` in all stock
|
|
`Locations <model-stock.location>` to be calculated for the date of the period,
|
|
and stored in the `Stock Period Cache <model-stock.period.cache>`.
|
|
|
|
These cached values can then be used, where applicable, instead of having to
|
|
recalculate them each time they are needed.
|
|
|
|
.. seealso::
|
|
|
|
The periods can be viewed and managed from the main menu item:
|
|
|
|
|Inventory & Stock --> Configuration --> Periods|__
|
|
|
|
.. |Inventory & Stock --> Configuration --> Periods| replace:: :menuselection:`Inventory & Stock --> Configuration --> Periods`

Period Cache
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
The *Period Cache* is used to store the quantities of a product in a
|
|
particular location on the date defined by its `Period <model-stock.period>`.
