View and adjust stock on hand
Inventory and Purchasing
In Fred NXT Head Office, changes to stock-on-hand not associated with stocktaking are made using adjustment journals. You can adjust a store's stock-on-hand of one or more products directly, or make a bulk adjustment in Excel. Adjustment journals enable you to make small adjustments to stock-on-hand; for example, if some items are accidentally broken; or if a supplier supplies an incorrect quantity. The Data Import/Export Framework (DIEF) enables you to adjust your inventory in bulk by exporting a list of products to a spreadsheet, making changes in Excel, importing the spreadsheet to an adjustment journal, then finally posting the journal.
