Purchase quantity 100, inventory 400

Hi, We got a strange problem in our inventory.   An item which was purchased into inventory at the quantity of 100 pcs, became 400 in inventory?   The item register identifies 400 entered on that...

    Hi HangedUpOnMe , another reason this might happen is if the number of items per buying unit is set to 4.

Hi HangedUpOnMe , in that case you will need to:

- Renumber the existing item, eg with a prefix "Z"+ the existing number

- Create a new item of the existing number, set up correctly

- Do an inventory adjustment which has two lines:

-   For the old item, - the old qty, @ the old unit cost

-   For the new item, + the old qty / 4, @ the unit cost times 4

- Make the old item inactive
