Inventory Adjustments
Overview
Inventory Add is the process of incrementing the inventory level of a particular product. Every increment of items in inventory should have an associated reason selected by the user when executing the transaction. It is recommended to allow inventory adjustments to warehouse administrators or managers as they will have the power to adjust increase or reduce the inventory level of items. Inventory adjustments are used to correct any discrepancy found in inventory or report missing or damaged products.

In order to add inventory the user must provide the item id of the product, the location to place the item at, provide a reason code and the quantity to be added to the inventory. Optionally if the item uses serial, lot and expiration date the fields to add said information will be provided. After providing the requires information the inventory level of an item is increased.
