Inventory Adjustments

An adjustment manually changes the balance of an inventory item — for cases like waste, breakage, or an opening balance.

Inventory adjustments: adjust any item's balance and record the reason — every change is logged

1. The adjustments tab
2. Tap "New Adjustment" to adjust an item's balance (damage/waste/correction…)

Steps

1. Admin Panel → Inventory → select the item → Adjustment.
2. Choose the type:
3. Add (+): receiving outside a purchase order, or an opening balance.
4. Deduct (−): waste, breakage, spoilage.
5. Set (=): set the balance to a specific number.
6. Enter the quantity and the reason.
7. Save.

Permanent trace

Every adjustment is logged (who, when, quantity, reason, balance before/after) — for auditing and to prevent tampering.

Note

It's best to have most inventory changes flow through stock counts and purchase orders (the automated paths), and keep adjustments for exceptional cases only.
