Hi Blair_38
Thanks for the response and the screenshots attached.
For your first question, in my understanding, the negative amounts should not be equal to the positive amounts as the value of the raw materials is not the same as the finished products. Also, the recap of the transaction seems to be balanced in both debits and credits. May I clarify what we are trying to achieve in your build items?
For the second question, if the inventory account for an item is the raw materials account, creating a new item from it will produce a debit on the raw materials account. and a credit to the new item's inventory tracking account. I recommend checking the "Asset Account for Item Inventory" for the item in question.
Let us know if you need any further assistance with this. Also, feel free to let us know if you have private information regarding this concern.
Thanks,
