Stock not adjusting when a sales order is entered.

Hi,

 

I am wondering if you could let me know how to fix a problem I am having. 

 

When I enter a sale as an order and record it the stock that I have entered does not come off our stock count on hand. This is a problem as we are selling the items someone has on order. Can I change a setting to make the products come off the stock on hand.

 

Thanks,

 

Deanne

    Hi DePez 

    A workaround might be doing an inventory adjustment manually to reduce the stock but please note that if you convert these orders to invoices later on, the stock will be reduced again and at that point, another adjustment needs to be made to bring the stock back to correct values.

    Hi DePez 

    The quantity/stock on hand will only reduce once the order has been converted into an invoice. This is because orders/quotes do not impact the on-hand inventory quantities until they are changed into invoices. Let us know if you have further questions on this.

      Hi Komal,

       

      Thank you for your reply. Is there any way around this as it can be quite unhelpful.
