Stock adjustments

If you need to update the quantity on hand, average cost, or the total value of a tracked inventory item, you can enter an adjustment. You might need to enter an adjustment following a stock take, to write off an item (e.g. for damaged goods), or where a normal sale or purchase transaction isn’t suitable. About Stock adjustments These are the adjustments types you can make are:
  • Opening: increases the current quantity on hand of the item, and adjusts its total value using either the current average cost or the cost price you enter in the adjustment.
  • Loss or Theft: Those stock that lost will also be added from the warehouse
  • Break: Those stocks which break by mishap can be decreased.
  • Expire: You can certainly adjust the amount of inventory you have on hand, to reflect any items that may have expired. Once you have an accurate idea of your current stock, you can use an Inventory Quantity Adjustment to record any shrinkage that may have occurred

Adjustments Types: Track Your Inventory:

When you track your inventory, Splendid Accounts records the quantities of inventory items you have available to sell. If you need to set stock levels when you start tracking your inventory, you can import your opening balances. Stock levels will increase and decrease as you buy and sell these items, or if you adjust an item’s balance. Splendid Accounts calculates the value of the items you have on hand and includes this on the balance sheet report. As you trade items, the inventory balance updates. When a sale happens, the value is recorded as the cost of goods sold.
