Stock Quantity Adjustments

Overview


Stock quantity adjustments are on the inventory branch of the navigation panel 

  • In order to test sales you need to have stock on hand. The only easy ways to get stock on hand for a product is to do a purchase receipt or a stock adjustment. Stock adjustments are the most convenient for training purposes. 
  • Stock adjustments can have many lines. So you can adjust as many products as you want on a single adjustment transaction. 
  • If the product requires serial numbers when purchased you have to create serial numbers to adjust the stock. 
  • Stock adjustments have a defined list of allowable reasons for adjusting the stock. Such as breakage etc. Each reason for adjustment posts the value of the adjustment to different general ledger accounts.
