Material Adjustments

Material Adjustment Transactions are similar to Material Transfer Transactions. Material Adjustment Transactions are used to correct inventory quantities when the original calculation was inaccurate for any reason.


These adjustments follow a transaction process similar to that of a transfer. All steps of a Material Adjustment Request described below are performed by the Material Adjustment Requestor.

All actions in the Inventory Adjustment dashboard are restricted to users with the Warehouse Manager role. Employees assigned to this role can:

  • Create new adjustments
  • Edit existing adjustments 
  • Complete adjustments
  • Delete adjustments that are in the pending stage

  1. From the Inventory group of dashboard, open Adjustments dashboard.
  2. Click New Adjustment.
  3. Click Warehouse to select the warehouse where you want to adjust the inventory balance.
  4. Click Input Values As to select the type of adjustment:
    1. Adjustment — Specify how much to change the balance of materials in stock, for example, when materials are received from a purchase.
    2. Result — Specify the actual quantity of material currently in stock, for example, after conducting a physical inventory count.
  5. Click Create.
