Stock Adjustment posts variances from approved End of Month Inventory (stock take) sessions. Completed stock takes that have not yet been adjusted show an Adjust action; applying adjustment updates stock to match counted quantities.

Apply a stock adjustment
- Select a date range to load completed stock takes.
- Find a row where Status is Completed and Stock Adjusted is No.
- Click Adjust.
- In the confirmation modal, enter a Reason for the adjustment (required).
- Confirm — FoodEase creates the adjustment and marks the stock take as adjusted.
If no reason is entered, the adjustment is blocked with an error notification.

Best practices

- Enter a clear Reason (e.g. Month-end count variance — spillage) for audit trails.
- Run End of Month Inventory before adjustments; do not skip the count step.
- Verify results in Stock Movement Log and Stock Ledgers.
