Agree with Stephanie - there is not currently a way to do this, other than
manually entering the retroactive location history for each new component.

Or, we have played with the idea here of taking a 'day forward' approach;
i.e. when you assign the new component its current location, enter a
Location Remark something like "for previous location/inventory history see
component 'a' ".  Combine that with a distinct Location Purpose - something
like New Component Added - so you can easily spot and search on the 'fork
in the road.'  If at some point later you come across a distinct need to
report the full location history of one or more individual components, you
could enter the retroactive histories if/when needed.

Anyone see cons/issues with that approach?

Kim
