Stock Adjustments

Overview

Stock adjustments let you correct inventory quantities for reasons such as damage, theft, recounts, or errors. Unlike sales or purchases, adjustments directly change stock levels without creating a financial transaction.

Step-by-Step Guide

1

Navigate to Adjustments

Go to Inventory → Adjustments from the main sidebar.

2

Create New Adjustment

Click New Adjustment and select the warehouse or store location.

3

Add Products

Search and add the products you need to adjust. Enter the new actual quantity or the adjustment amount (positive or negative).

4

Select Reason

Choose a reason code: Damage, Theft, Recount, Expired, or Other. You can add custom reasons in settings.

5

Submit for Approval

If approval workflows are enabled, submit the adjustment. Otherwise, it applies immediately and updates stock levels.

Tips & Best Practices

Tip: Always perform a physical count before creating an adjustment to ensure accuracy.
Note: Adjustments affect your inventory valuation. Make sure the reason is documented for audit purposes.
Tip: Use the Adjustment Report to review all adjustments over time and identify patterns.
