The Adjust Inventory screen allows you to modify the quantity (inventory amount) of existing items. It uses the FIFO (First In First Out) method to adjust the total quantity to match the value you input here. It is especially useful when an inventory item is lost, found, or broken, or if you've inadvertently recorded an incorrect quantity. The Adjust Inventory features differ from the Audit functionality.
Note that this feature differs from audit functionality. Auditing ensures that certain actions like adding or removing inventory are unavailable during the counts whereas the adjust feature has all features enabled.
Please note that items tracked by serial numbers, which have been checked out, cannot be adjusted.
Note: Adjust Inventory is also available on iOS, Android, and Windows Mobile devices.

Item Details
Note: Several fields in this section can be "locked". When a field is locked, it will retain the information you entered through subsequent transactions. This is useful if you are adding multiple Items to a location or checking out multiple Items to a single customer. To lock an individual field, click on the lock icon. You can select the Lock All button to quickly lock all fields that have the icon. Select Unlock All to unlock the fields, allowing you to add new information.

Receipt
During the Adjust Count, the Site-Item/Category Restrictions are applicable if the quantity entered exceeds the current quantity in the system. The error message will appear, indicating that all inventory items cannot be adjusted. The item that cannot be adjusted will have a warning message indicating that "Transaction disallowed due to existing site/category restrictions.”
The Adjust Down (removal): No Site-Item/Category Restrictions are applied and in the Adjust Up (add), Site-Item/Category Restrictions are applied. Note: Adjust transaction allows the user to remove quantity for an item that is at a restricted site.
Also, refer to the topic Site-Item/Category Filtering on the Edit Site page and Working Site for more details.
