This guide explains how to check or update the inventory balance.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
When does the inventory balance change?<\/strong>
The inventory balance changes whenever products are added to or removed from stock. The balance increases when you purchase new inventory products and record them on a purchase invoice, or when you add opening inventory \u2014 for example, if you already had stock before starting to use SimplBooks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The balance decreases when you add products to a sales invoice or reduce products from inventory. The balance also changes when you transfer products between warehouses and during stocktaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udce2 Note!<\/strong> The inventory balance is visible only when inventory tracking is enabled in the system.<\/strong> Using inventory tracking adds complexity to your bookkeeping, and we recommend using it only when it adds value to your business.<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
