• Key Concepts: 
  Implied initial on hand is a feature of SAP's SmartOps (MA-SMOPS) module that allows users to create an initial inventory record for a new item without having to manually enter the data. This feature is useful for quickly setting up new items in the system without having to manually enter all the data. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use implied initial on hand, users must first set up the item in the system. Once the item is set up, users can then enable implied initial on hand by selecting the “Enable Implied Initial On Hand” checkbox in the item setup screen. Once enabled, SmartOps will automatically create an initial inventory record for the item based on the item’s current inventory levels. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using implied initial on hand, it is important to remember that SmartOps will only create an initial inventory record for items that have a current inventory level greater than zero. If an item does not have any current inventory, SmartOps will not create an initial inventory record for it.
