Adjustments & Transfers
How to manually adjust stock levels, record damaged items, and transfer inventory between stores.
Stock Adjustments
Sometimes you need to change stock levels manually — for example, after a physical count, when items are damaged, or to correct an error.
How to Adjust Stock
- Go to Inventory in the sidebar.
- Find the product variant and open its actions menu.
- Choose the action:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Adjust Stock | Add or remove units with a +/− quantity — the dialog previews the before → after stock. When adding stock, you can also enter the unit cost (used for profit reporting). Reason is optional. |
| Consume / Damaged | Record damaged or consumed units removed from stock. A reason is required. |
- Click Confirm — the stock level updates immediately.
Viewing Adjustment History
Go to Inventory > Adjustments to see a history of every stock change:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Product / Variant | Which item was adjusted |
| Type | Why the stock changed — Sale, Return, Purchase, Transfer In/Out, Manual Count, Shrinkage, Damaged, or Other |
| Quantity | The change and the stock before → after |
| Reason | The note recorded with the change |
| Date / User | When it happened and who did it |
You can filter by store, adjustment type, and date range. Automatic operations (sales, returns, purchase orders, transfers) are logged here alongside your manual adjustments — a complete audit trail.
Stock Transfers
If you operate multiple stores, you can transfer inventory from one store to another.
How to Transfer Stock
- Go to Inventory and open the store that currently has the stock (the source is the store you're viewing).
- Find the product variant, open its actions menu, and select Transfer Stock.
- Fill in:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Destination Store | The store receiving the stock |
| Quantity | How many units to transfer (capped at the source's on-hand stock) |
| Reason | Optional note for the transfer |
- Click Confirm.
The stock is deducted from the source store and added to the destination store instantly. Both movements appear in the adjustments history as Transfer Out and Transfer In.
Tip
Use the Low Stock page to identify which stores need stock, then transfer from stores that have excess inventory.
