Adjusting Stock

If a stock count needs correcting — a miscount, damage, a recount — say the adjustment with a reason:

adjust CL -5, miscounted

The bot confirms:

✅ Stock adjusted — Canadian Light (CL): 200 → 195 (-5)
Reason: miscounted

Adjustments can go either direction:

correct stock CF +10, recount

✅ Stock adjusted — Canadian Full (CF): 140 → 150 (+10)
Reason: recount

This is different from Receiving Stock. Receiving stock is for NEW inventory coming in from a supplier. Adjusting stock is for correcting an existing count that’s already wrong — no supplier, no cost, just the correction and why.

Reason is required

Every adjustment needs a reason — it’s what shows up later if anyone needs to look back and understand why a number changed:

❌ Need a non-zero adjustment and a reason.

Can’t go negative

If an adjustment would take a product below zero stock, it’s rejected instead of applied:

❌ Could not adjust stock.
Adjustment would result in negative stock. Current: 5, delta: -20

Every adjustment — from the group or from the dashboard — is logged and visible on the Logs page and on that product’s own history.
