Inventory

What to do when stock is damaged

Record damaged stock so inventory quantity stays accurate.

Damaged stock should not remain counted as available stock if it cannot be sold.

What to do

  • Open the inventory item.
  • Use stock adjustment if available.
  • Reduce the stock quantity by the damaged amount.
  • Choose damaged stock as the reason if available.
  • Add a clear note.

Why this matters

  • If damaged stock stays in inventory, Bizwazi may show more sellable stock than you really have.
