Adjustment Out

Take stock off the books, with a clear reason and a matching journal entry.

What it does

Adjustment Out reduces item quantity on hand for reasons other than a sale - write-offs, corrections, or any other outbound movement that isn't a trading transaction. Posting it both removes the stock and generates a GL voucher.

How it works

Add the items and quantities

Enter the items and quantities leaving stock, the same barcode/search-driven line entry used across every document type.

Pick the voucher sub-type

Before posting, choose which account the value is debited to - this is required, and posting is blocked until it's selected.

Post

Posting removes the quantity from stock and writes a balanced voucher: the chosen account is debited and the company's transfer-credit account is credited for the line total.

The problem it solves

Stock sometimes has to leave the shelf without a sale behind it, and every one of those movements has real cost attached to it. Requiring a debit account at post time means that cost always lands somewhere specific in the chart of accounts instead of just disappearing from inventory value with no accounting counterpart.
