Carry out this task

  1. Save the Before values on the linked tool.
  2. Increase sealed packs while retaining the one loose roll.
  3. Calculate & Save the After values on the same item. Check the ID is retained rather than creating another physical item.

Calculation and observed tool result

Before

0 × 3 + 1 = 1 rolls

Recorded quantity: 1 rolls.

After

2 × 3 + 1 = 7 rolls

Recorded quantity: 7 rolls.

What the result means

The available count becomes seven rolls after receipt.

Limits of this example

Only physically received packs belong in this total.

A mistake to avoid

Replacing loose stock with the delivery count would lose the existing roll.
