Help creating inventory volume report.

Help creating inventory volume report.

I've been working with Zoho support for a few months now trying to develop a inventory volume report. Though they have been helpful, it never seems to generate exactly what we're looking for. I thought I'd turn to the community for further help. We've been approaching this via Zoho Inventory and Zoho Analytics to generate the actual report.

In the most basic form we're looking to generate the average volume in our warehouse by client on a monthly basis to determine storage billing.

——————

Monthly storage volume billing calculation

1cu ft: 12in x 12in x 12in = 1728

Volume: (Package H x W x D) / 1cu ft

Avg Monthly Volume: Volume * Average Daily Qty/Stock

Pallet space: 52.8 cu ft

Storage Cost: =CEILING(Avg Monthly Volume/pallet space) * $30

——————

How this would translate to our use case

ClientSKUItem NamePackage LengthPackage WidthPackage HeightVolume (cubic ft)Avg Monthly VolumeMonthly Storage Charge
Client A2320700000Item 128.51919668.12903226
Client A2220700002Item 2653.810.10.1129032258

Client B2222500002Item 219.3847.942010.8417.0193548

Client B2222500003Item 4229.50.10.10.7903225806







873.7258065$510

The above formula is pretty straight forward but what doesn't seem possible is capturing/accessing the stock on hand for each day in a given time frame (as we plan to use a date range filter in our report)

Again, basic math/formula, but how we would determine the average stock for an entire month
