Add Inventory
Overview
Section titled “Overview”Add Inventory sets a product’s stock level in a specific warehouse. It’s a fast, direct way to establish or correct stock for one product — the value you enter becomes the record’s quantity, and the change is recorded in the movement history as an adjustment.
Use Add Inventory for quick corrections and initial stock. For inbound supplier deliveries with line items and cost, use Goods Receiving instead.
