Count once, and make the system match the shelf
Record physical counts against on-hand quantities, see the difference per product, and post the correction to stock and to the books. Scrap orders handle damaged or expired goods the same way.

- Retail & wholesale operators — Reconcile shop-floor or bin counts against POS and ERPS stock without spreadsheets.
What Inventory Adjustment does inside ERPS X
Inventory Adjustment is the application your warehouse uses to make the system agree with reality. Pick a product, and ERPS shows the On Hand quantity it believes you have. You enter the Counted Quantity, the Difference is calculated, and you post. Stock is corrected immediately.
Every adjustment carries a Schedule Date and the User responsible, so counts can be planned ahead and traced afterwards. Because each product in ERPS has its own difference account, the value of a shortage or surplus lands in Accounting without a second entry from finance.
Scrap Orders sit alongside adjustments in the same Inventory menu. When goods are damaged, expired, or otherwise unsellable, a scrap order removes them from stock with a reason, and the movement shows up in Product Moves like any other transaction.

Everything Inventory Adjustment gives your team
Each feature below is part of the application as it ships in your ERPS X workspace — no add-ons, no separate licences.
Count against on hand
Select a product and ERPS pre-fills the current on-hand quantity and unit of measure. Type the counted figure; the difference is worked out for you.
Scheduled adjustments
Set a schedule date for each count so cycle counts and period-end counts are planned, not improvised.
Responsible user
Every adjustment records the user who performed it, giving you a clear owner for each correction.
Scrap orders
Write off damaged, expired, or lost items through a dedicated scrap order that reduces stock and records why.
Product Moves trail
Adjustments and scraps appear in the Product Moves report next to receipts, deliveries, and sales for a full movement history.
Posts to Accounting
The value of each difference flows to the difference account configured on the product, so books and stock stay aligned.

The Inventory Adjustment workflow
From first setup to daily use — the path your team follows inside the application.
Plan the count
Open New Inventory Adjustment, choose the product, and set the schedule date and user.
Count the stock
Physically count the shelf or bin. Enter the counted quantity against the on-hand figure shown.
Review the difference
ERPS shows the variance per line. Recount if the gap looks wrong before saving.
Post the adjustment
Save. On-hand stock is corrected and the difference value posts to the product's difference account.
Scrap where needed
For damaged or expired goods, raise a Scrap Order instead so the reason is kept with the movement.
Where teams use Inventory Adjustment every day
Monthly cycle counts
Schedule adjustments per product group each month and assign a user to each batch.
Retail stockroom reconciliation
Compare what POS and ERPS say you hold against the physical count after a busy season.
Damaged delivery
A pallet arrives crushed — scrap the unusable units and keep the reason on record.
Expired stock
Remove out-of-date items from sellable stock with a scrap order before they reach a customer.
Opening stock for a new company
Bring initial quantities into a fresh ERPS X company workspace with dated adjustments.
Investigating a shortfall
Trace an unexpected difference through Product Moves to the receipt, delivery, or sale that caused it.
