Re: Stocktaking



Hi Paul

It would be better to find out why the software thinks there is -1. Finding and correcting the software error is a better GAAP solution than covering up the error with another false entry.

Hi everyone,

I did a quick check of inventory on hand. We are an IT shop and carry very little in inventory (if we need it, we go and buy it). I have two parts that LS says I have -1 (negative one) on hand. We have not sold that part for a couple of years and we have none in stock.

I would like to get these parts "adjusted out" but I am wondering what is the best way - both in LS and in accounting (I am NOT an accountant).

My solution would be to set up a "stocktaking discrepancies" vendor and to purchase these items for $0. This would increment the number on hand up to zero, but I am not sure of any GAAP repercussions!!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Paul
