About product inventory adjustments

Learn how stock adjustments to products work in Craftybase.

An inventory adjustment is made for a product whenever something happens that causes the stock level to change. When an order is created for a product, this will generate an adjustment to remove the amount sold from your inventory. When a manufacture is created, an adjustment for the amount made will be created. 

It is also possible to create add your own inventory adjustments to handle any stock changes unrelated to orders and manufactures – this is the recommended way to track breakages and loss. 

Note: Stock should not be increased using inventory adjustments as it will cost zero.

We'll cover:


Adjustment history

It's important to review the adjustment history for your products often to identify any entries that need correcting.

Starting adjustments

Starting stock levels can be set via your product's starting adjustment. This tells Craftybase how much of the product you had on hand on your account start date.

Starting adjustments can be set manually per individual product or, alternatively, updated in bulk via CSV.
