  • Key Concepts: 
    FIFO Layer is a feature of SAP Business One (SBO) that allows users to manage their inventory in a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) manner. This means that the oldest items in the inventory are used first, and the newest items are used last. This helps to ensure that the most up-to-date items are always available for use.
    
    How to Use It: 
    To use the FIFO Layer feature, users must first enable it in the SBO settings. Once enabled, users can then assign a FIFO layer to each item in their inventory. This layer will determine which items are used first when an order is placed. The FIFO layer can also be used to track the age of each item in the inventory, allowing users to easily identify which items need to be replaced or updated.
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using the FIFO Layer feature, it is important to keep track of the age of each item in the inventory. This will help ensure that the oldest items are used first and that new items are added as needed. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update the FIFO layers assigned to each item in order to ensure that they are accurate and up-to-date.
    
    Related Information:
