Stock Level Adjustment

Inventory >Activity>Stock Level Adjustment

To create a stock level item click on the Add button

fill in the header information of the stock level adjustment and then click on Save.

Click on Add to insert lines.

In this window search for the stock item and select it, select your warehouse that you want to increase / decrease the stock in.  Put in the quantity that you want the increase to go to and put in a reason.  Click on Save and close to save changes.

Insert all the items that need a stock adjustment.  Click on save and then close to take you back to the stock level adjustment screen.

Remember that we can also import stock level adjustments from an Excel Sheet.

Once you are back to the window you will notice your stock level adjustment journal waiting to be processed.

 Note that Stock Level Adjustments will only process on current dates, they will not be able to be back dated or forward dated.

We allow only one time where you can back date the stock level adjustment and that is when one is doing the take on balances of stock.

The rule is that it has to be the VERY first transaction to be processed.

Now go to the tab below where it says process and click on the process button.

The stock level adjustment will process the stock and update your stock quantities.

Please keep the following in mind:

1 Once you begin with this procedure no source documents can be processed. Only a Stock Take freezes the inventory module.
2 Do a backup.

Print an Inventory Valuation Report before starting a Stock Take

IM – Report – Inventory Valuation

If you don’t use any of the add on modules or Sales Orders then run a consolidated Valuation report per warehouse. However if you have the Bill of Materials add on module you will need to run a minimum of two reports.

Example: A company is using Huge ERP and the Bill of Materials add on module.

 

This will give you a complete overview of all stock on hand and value

 

This report will give you all the stock that will appear in your BOM WIP account. Remember you can not affect this stock.

 

This is the stock that is to be counted.

 

GL – Reports - Trial Balance

Print a Trial Balance

 

Inventory – Reports – Inventory Count

Print an Inventory Count Report

 

Print and export to excel

Proceed with a manual stock take – See attachment ‘Counted Qty.csv’

Sort by Column Variance

 

Now copy and paste the negative values onto a new excel worksheet and do the same for the positive. See attachments ‘Positive Stock’ and ‘Negative Stock’.

Remember that if the System Qty and Counted Qty are identical there is no reason to do a Stock Journal for these items.

 

On the both import files create a new column called ‘Increase / Decrease’. This will allow the system to know whether the amount being import should increase or decrease the quantity on hand. To ‘Increase’ use a and to ‘Decrease’ use a 0.

Things to remember:

1 You cannot import a negative figure, so re-evaluate the equation that you were using.
2 The Variance column cannot have a 1000 comma separator.
