Items are classified as New if they are Stocked, have stock on hand or stock on order but currently have an unclear purpose.

Are not used to produce other items
Have an age less than or equal to 12
Because these items have limited sales history and forecast information available to them, the app cannot allocate these to a more suitable stock status. Items can be removed from this list by taking appropriate action based on the situation.
Here are some actions you may want to consider:
If you do not want to keep this item in stock, make it non-stocked or obsolete.
If it replaces another item, link it to the old item in a supersession.
Add a manual forecast based on your sales expectation if it is brand new at this location.
Add the item to the bill of materials (BOM) if it is a component.
Set the source of supply at sub-locations to the distribution center (DC), if the item is purchased centrally.
