To adjust an item's total value and unit cost

If you haven't already read the Adjust Stock Overview, see Adjusting item total values and unit costs for more information.

The Adjust Stock window should be displayed.

  1. Enter the number of the item you want to change in the Item Number column in the scrolling list.
  2. Be sure 0 (zero) appears in the Quantity column.

Warning: Don't make any changes to the Unit Cost column

It's very important that you don't make changes to the Unit Cost column at this point. The Unit Cost amount will be automatically adjusted when you record the adjustment transaction.

  1. In the Amount column, enter the amount of the adjustment only, not the new total value of the item.

  1. Your entry in the Account column depends upon your situation. Read the information in this step carefully before you make an entry in the Account column.
  1. Click Record.
