If you have an advanced warehouse configuration, did you synchronize the adjusted warehouse entries with the item card? More info - Count, adjust, and reclassify inventory - Business Central | Microsoft Learn

Thank you everyone for your assistance.

I just noticed that the Last Counting period update has changed in the SKU card, but its not updating in the item card still.

I can work with that, but for to minimize the confusion, i want the item card and SKU card to be at the same page.

Is there anything else that i can try to make it work?

Hello Amrit,
I believe that this works this way because, with an advanced warehouse, you can have more SKUs defined for one item card and then you'll need info for every SKU what is the value for the field Last Counting period Update.
I think that there isn't any native page that will give you the view you want, but it wouldn't be hard to develop something like that.

in BC, SKU takes higher priority than item card, so it makes good sense to update the SKU rather than the item card. for example, For item xyz, it has skus set up under location A and location B, respectively. Sku at A and B are counted at different times, so it will be misleading if the last or next counting period show on the item card in this case.
