Stock Adjustment (Add/Remove Stock)

Stock Adjustment is used to manually increase or decrease stock quantities for reasons that are not part of a regular sale or purchase. Common scenarios include: goods damaged in storage, items lost or stolen, items found during physical count, or corrections after a physical stock audit. Every adjustment is logged with a reason/remark, creating an audit trail so you can trace why stock levels changed outside of normal transactions.

Steps

  1. Navigate to Inventory > Stock and select an item.
  2. Click "Stock Adjustment" or "+ Stock In" / "- Stock Out".
  3. Enter the Quantity to add or remove.
  4. Select the Store where the adjustment is being made.
  5. Add a Reason/Remark for the adjustment (e.g., Damaged, Lost, Found).
  6. Click "Save" to update the stock level.

Tip: Always add remarks for stock adjustments โ€” this helps in auditing and tracking discrepancies.
