Helpful Hints for Adjustments

• If your count doesn’t match your Order Time inventory but the two systems match,  you need to make an adjustment to both systems.  Make the adjustment in Order Time then synchronize.

• If QuickBooks matches your count but Order Time does not, make the adjustment in Order Time but prevent the synch from going to QuickBooks

• If your count matches Order Time but not QuickBooks, you need to make an adjustment to QuickBooks only, do the adjustment in QuickBooks only.

• In QuickBooks, the Inventory value on your Balance Sheet should match the total on the Inventory Valuation Summary Report.

  • General Rule of Thumb – NEVER make a journal entry into the Inventory account on QuickBooks.  Use the adjustment tools to update the inventory.
