Has anyone ever come up with anything that "resembles" Fishbowl for inventory purposes?

In regards to the color coding, red, yellow, green... ok to ship orders. I know you can do KPI's  but on an actual GI.

I guess the biggest issue with the color coding is the limitation on aggregated calculations. We can’t color code based on a COUNT or SUM formulas for example. This limits what we can do.

Attached is something close, but not perfect.

Do you have a screenshot of Fishbowl? I’m not familiar with the layout.

I’m curious what this looks like. I’ve created a few GIs color coding shipping logic (can be shipped, etc.). Filters around calculated fields that define whether an order can be shipped.

Hi ​@Kandy Beatty,
On your GI do the following depending on what condition you will be using, for my sample I used the STATUS as my condition on the color coding:

Condition:
=IIf( [RQRequest.Status]='N','yellow', 'default')
