Inventory Adjustments

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".

Scan the barcode that needs adjustment, record changes and then save by hitting "Adjust" in the bottom right.

You can also manually type in the batch identifier or part number/name, then click "Adjust" in the Actions column.

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.

Reason Codes
Reason Codes are supported for use with both NetSuite and QuickBooks integrations in DataNinja. While they're commonly used with NetSuite for inventory and financial tracking, you can configure and apply Reason Codes regardless of your connected system. See our Reasons Code page for more information.

From the Maintain Part Page

From the Parts page, double click on the part to be adjusted, then click on "Edit" in the Actions columns for the identifier you want to adjust.

In the new aside, click "Adjust" in the Actions column for the relevant identifier.

Type in the correct amount. Depending on how your DataNinja settings are configured, you may be required to explain why you are adjusting the inventory level. You can view the changes to be made by clicking on "View Changes" in the bottom left corner. Click "Adjust" to save the adjustment.
