    Hi Pradeep

    If you purchase and keep inventory of consumables or stationery items, you can only post a negative adjustment item journal to reduce those inventory.

    Hi Genie

    Thank you for your reply. If I done negative entry inventory reducing but would you tell me what kind of entry pass in system and which G/L going to Debit .

    If pass negative entry with value then inventory and value are negative or if we pass negative entry with quantity value 0 then inventory gone adjusted.

    So kindly would tell me what is exact entry in system when we pass negative.

    Regards,

    Pradeep

    Hi Pradeep

    If you post a Negative Adjmt., Inventory Adjustment A/c will be debited and Inventory A/c will be credited.

    Hi Genie

    Thank You for your reply. Would you suggest me if we want to manage our inventory consumption what will do except BOM.

    Is there any other process which help us to manage our inventory.

    Hi

    Consumption (Entry type as Consumption) can be posted against Production Order or Assembly Orders only.  In your case, for managing consumables/stationery inventory negative adjustment is the option.  May be you can have a separate Journal Template / Batch to keep track of it.  Even you can use 'Reason Code' to mark it as Consumption which can be filtered in Item Ledger Entries.
