Inventory adjustments in QuickBooks represent changes made to inventory quantities. These adjustments can occur when a client manually adds or reduces inventory. Below is a breakdown of how these values are generated and how to review them.


How Inventory Adjustments Are Created

Inventory adjustments are recorded when users manually increase or decrease inventory quantities. This action is performed through the following process:

  1. Accessing Inventory Adjustments:
    • In QuickBooks, navigate to:
      Inventory > New Quantity Adjustment
  2. Creating an Adjustment:
    • Users can add or subtract inventory for specific items.
    • This action updates the Inventory Adjustment value in Retail Orbit.

Reviewing Inventory Adjustments

Clients can track and review all adjustments made through the Quantity Adjustment History:

  1. Go to Inventory > Quantity Adjustment History.
  2. This section provides a detailed record of all changes, including the date, item, and adjusted quantities.

  • Negative Value: Indicates a decrease in inventory.

Example:
