DBD: Warehouse Release Report
The Warehouse Release Report provides the most granular cost center analysis available in the Print Management module. Primarily utilized to audit monthly item releases in dollars for specific corporate locations, cost centers, or individual departments, it is the ideal tool for clients who prefer to charge department budgets at the exact time an inventory release occurs.
Key Features
- Granular Timeframe Filters: Can be run dynamically as a standard periodic report of the Print Management Cycle, filtered to isolate activity occurring since the last cycle process, or generated to audit real-time and historic activity windows.
- Strict Sorting Hierarchy: Automatically organizes and renders output in sequential order by Cost Center Number, then by Item, and finally chronologically by Release Date.
- Direct Fulfillment Inclusion: Includes a toggle to cleanly incorporate direct dropship transactions alongside standard physical warehouse distributions.
- Optional Summary Recaps: Offers an optional aggregated cost center activity recap matrix at the end of the report to simplify general ledger journal entries.

Available Sequences
When generating this log, the data is organized using the following sequence option:
- By Customer / Location / Item
Understanding the Report Output
The layout clusters item transactional records neatly beneath overarching location/cost-center address banners:
| Column Header | Description |
| Item | The system's unique master item tracking identification code. |
| Revised | The active catalog or engineering revision date level assigned to the item profile. |
| Description | The alphanumeric master label or name identifying the item. |
| Date | The calendar date the individual inventory release transaction was processed. |
| Req No | The internal requisition number, order reference, or document ID linked to the release event. |
| Quantity | The volume count of units distributed, featuring packing scale specifications when applicable (e.g., 14 CASE/700 ). |
| Value | The financial calculation assigned to the release line item based on current sell pricing parameters. |
Bottom-Line Aggregations
The ledger provides distinct mathematical calculation breaks for rapid validation:
- Item Code Total: Aggregates total units and dollar extensions for a single product code within that location.
- Location Total: Combined value of all diverse item release lines under that specific cost center block.
- Customer Code Total: The grand total of all combined location releases across the client account.
💡 Tip: If your client's accounting department needs to build exact manual journal entries to back-charge internal departments for monthly fulfillment, running this report with the optional cost center recap turned on will save them a massive amount of spreadsheet math.
