Hi All expertise,

in Customer/item statistic report, we noticed that some of the items are in negative quantity and revenue.

Does anyone know what's the possibilities?

    Hi Avangeline,

    This might be return transactions from you customers in a specific period.

    Can you check the item and check the item transactions in detail?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    hi Ludwig,

    thanks for your reply.

    However, there are cases where quantity = 0 but Revenue and margin in negative value.

    Whats the reason for such cases?

    Hello Avangeline,

    A 0 quantity and a negative value can be caused by inventory valuation.

    That is, imagine that you sell a product.

    At the time of sales, the cost price of the item was $100.

    When the items are returned the cost price changed, let's say to $120.

    If you do not mark the sales order and the return order then there might be a difference of $20 remaining in your warehouse.

    The same applies if the cost price changed to $80 or any other value.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Avengeline,

    Imagine you sell 1 pcs of a product through a sales order. The cost price of the product at the time of sales is $1000.

    After invoicing the customer, the customer returns the 1pcs and you create a return order to track that return.

    Imagine further that the cost price changed to $750 in the meantime.

    If you use a current costing method, such as weighted average, FIFO, etc. the price used for the return will be $750.

    Now we have an issue of -$1000 and a return of +$750, resulting in a negative value of -$250 and a quantity of 0.

    Does this example clarify things?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
