Whse. Phys. Invt. Journal Line created manually

Hi,
When we insert a line manually on the Whse. Phys. Invt. Journal and post, it creates only one entry on the warehouse entries. It does not create the second line for the adjustment bin. Does anyone why this happens?
Thanks

Are you adding an item to the Whse. Phys. Inventory Journal for “found inventory”?
I would advise using the Whse. Item Journal for found inventory during a Physical instead. We had all kinds of issues trying to use the Whse. Physical Inventory Journal and Physical Inventory Journal for found inventory.
It has been cleaner for us to use the Item Adjustment process (Whse. Item Journal & Item Journal) when adding inventory found during a physical. The Physical Inventory Journals are just for adjusting inventory that NAV knew about when you started.

I have found the users are using Whse. Phys. Invt. Journal to do adjustments instead of using the whse Item Journal. I found the error because the item ledger and warehouse entries did not match. I was just wondering if anyone knows the reason NAV does that. So I’ll have to customize the Whse. Phys. Invt. Journal to avoid this kind of error in the future.

We had the same issue at a former employer. We solved most issues with the Physical Inventory by building a work table where we scanned in all our counts. We also fixed any count errors in this work table. When we were satisfied with the counts, we ran a processing report that populated the Physical Inventory Journal. We then posted the Physical Inventory Journal. It was an expensive customization, but it worked great for both cycle counts and Physical Inventories.

Just my opinion, but you train people to avoid errors and follow the required business processes. Train them on why it’s important and how it affects the business. You can also try setting up permissions for the tables.
You customize when the system is not able to do what the business needs. Customization should usually be the last resort. I’m just not a fan of restricting functionality when you don’t have to. You’ll never know when you might actually need it.

Great advise! It is too common that ‘design change’ trumps common features due to the knowledge; if you are doing a Physical Inventory from the Physical Inventory Worksheet you are looking at what impacts the Financial records of the company. As a shop floorinventory team you are concerned with what is available to meet the demand and when Finance is asking for a Physical they are trying to true up the financial world not the physical inventory.
So inventory found outside of the Physical Inventory Worksheet must be accounted 1st by the Warehouse! and be adjusted and blessed so that the Item Adjustment can then be recognized in inventory and posted through to the General Ledger.
Based on the event defines the ‘journal’ or ‘worksheet’ used to impact the Warehouse or Warehouse & Inventory which then impacts the General Ledger. NOTE: Warehouse can be out of balance with the Inventory; but the Inventory must balance to the General Ledger.
