Any remaining percentage is shown as damaged, condemned, missing or otherwise unavailable. Actual inspection results should replace estimates.
How to use the result
Treat the output as a transparent planning comparison. Check the item, unit, location, status, dates and open transactions before acting. A mathematically correct result can still be operationally wrong when the inputs describe unavailable or incorrectly recorded stock.
Print or copy the result with the assumptions used. Replace estimates with verified information as receipts, counts, inspections and returns become known.
