Adjust a Transfer Quantity

For example, a transfer order for 100 units of item 70100 is released and shipped
from the Blue to the Yellow warehouse. When the items arrive at the Yellow
warehouse, a warehouse person discovers that there are only 87 units of the item
instead of 100. A quick enquiry shows that the missing 13 items were lost in
transit.

Now, the warehouse person records the receipt of the actual quantity of 87 units
of item 70100. Later, a dedicated person needs to make adjustments for this loss
in the program.
First, create, release, and post the shipment of the transfer order for 100 units of
item 70100 from the Blue to the Yellow warehouse. Then, post the transfer
receipt for 87 units, and then post the receipt for the remaining 13 units.
To adjust the inventory for the lost 13 units of item 70100, follow this procedure:
1. In the Navigation Pane, click the Purchase button and click
INVENTORY & COSTING→ITEM JOURNALS.
2. In the Item Journal window, in the Entry Type field, select Negative
Adjmt.
3. Fill in the Document No., Item No., Location Code, and Quantity
fields on the journal line with the appropriate data.
4. In the Applies-to Entry field, click the AssistButton to open the
Item Ledger Entries window.
5. Select the item ledger entry for the transfer receipt of 13 units and
click OK.
Now, post the item journal:
6. In the Item Journal window, click POSTING→POST. Click Yes to
confirm that you want to post the journal.
7. Click OK in the message box confirming that the journal was posted.
