How to adjust stock manually
Manually correct stock when counted stock does not match Bizwazi records.
Manual stock adjustments are used when the stock quantity in Bizwazi needs to be corrected.
When to adjust stock
- You counted stock and found a difference.
- Items were damaged.
- Items expired.
- Items were returned to a supplier.
- An earlier stock entry was wrong.
Good practice
Add a clear reason when adjusting stock. This makes the stock movement history easier to understand later.
Warning
Do not use manual adjustments for normal sales if the sale can be linked to inventory. Use inventory-linked sales so stock movement stays connected to sales.
