Active Subcontracted Items

Count of Items flagged as made by a subcontractor.

In detail

An item is subcontracted when you send raw material to an outside vendor who processes it and returns the finished product, such as sending cloth to a tailor. This card counts Item records with the Supply Raw Materials for Purchase flag on and not disabled. It has no date filter. The demo books show 0 because Yatra For Fun sells tours. The card only matters if you outsource manufacturing; the stock and the vendor's charge post through the Subcontracting Receipt and the Purchase Invoice, not from this count.

Formula

Active Subcontracted Items = Count of Item where is_sub_contracted_item = 1 and disabled = 0
