Inventory Adjustments

Inventory Adjustments is a powerful option that allows you to make both quantity and value adjustments to inventory lots. Use inventory adjustments to make corrections to physical inventory if there is no alternative way to make the necessary inventory changes

Note that this option is different than "transferring" an item from one code to another, for which you would simply use an Inventory Transfer, Planned Transfer or a Work Order.
