On-hand quantity is what is currently available in inventory. The on-hand inventory is updated based on the following triggers
a) When an item on order is received (when a receipt is created in ProcureDesk), the onhand quantity is updated based on the quantity received.
b) When a release order is created for an item, the on-hand quantity is automatically reduced.
On-order quantity is the item quantity for which you have already placed the order.
