Inventory Adjustments

Three most common ways to adjust inventory

👍

This page applies to DataNinja tenants integrated with NetSuite or QuickBooks Online, and to tenants with no finance system integration. The workflow in DataNinja is the same across integrations; where a financial system changes behavior, the integration-specific note calls it out.

Items that are synced with an integration will show the relevant integration's logo. Screenshots on this page may show the NetSuite logo, but tenants integrated with QuickBooks Online will see that logo instead. Tenants with no financial integration won't see any logo.

DataNinja makes inventory counts quick and easy by allowing you to update as you count. If you forgot your scanner, simply make note of the part number, batch identifier that needs to be adjusted, and amount.


Making an Adjustment

From the Adjustments Page

From the left-hand sidebar, click "Adjust", and an aside will open. Click on "Inventory".

On the Adjust Inventory aside, enter the correct amount of inventory, the Reason Code (if your company has them set up), and a note (this can be optional or required, depending on your Company Settings). You can view the changes to be made by clicking on "View Changes" in the bottom left corner. Click "Adjust" to save the adjustment.
