Inventory adjustments can be made directly from the product list, by creating a base inventory order, or through the Physical Count form for minor changes.
Before proceeding, we recommend printing an Inventory Listing of your current on‑hand amounts or a Product Listing worksheet that includes all retail items so you can compare and record your actual inventory.
Options:
Correcting On Hand or Adding Your Base Inventory (recommended): This option provides two ways to update inventory, whether you’re making minor corrections or entering your complete inventory.
Edit from the Physical Count form (Minor Adjustments): Choose this option when your on‑hand amounts are mostly accurate, but you need to adjust the wholesale value, expiration date, or quantity for a few items.
Correcting On Hand or Adding Your Base Inventory
Once you’ve recorded your current inventory count, to add to Boulevard, you can either enter the amounts directly into the On Hand field of the product list or create one or more base inventory orders, which are especially useful for larger inventories. For detailed instructions, see Entering Your Base Inventory.
Edit from the Physical Count form (Minor Adjustments)
Use Edit Count when your on‑hand amounts are mostly correct, but a few item quantities or wholesale values need adjusting. Wholesale values are calculated from the default Discount in Inventory Orders settings, which should be set before making changes. If your on‑hand amounts are accurate but many wholesale values are off, use Set Default Wholesale Discount for Inventory Costs instead.
