How do I correct a stock quantity after a count?

Created by Andrew Marcus, Modified on Mon, 3 Aug at 3:10 PM by Andrew Marcus

Use an adjustment. Go to Operations → Inventories, choose Adjustment, select the center and enter the counted quantity for each item.

Trabalance records the difference between the system quantity and your count, and posts the value of that difference to the account you select.

Record the reason. An adjustment with no explanation is difficult to defend at year end, and repeated adjustments on the same item usually point at a process problem rather than a counting problem.

Adjust in the center where the discrepancy was found rather than at business level, so the correction lands where the stock actually is.
