Error Message: Value of your inventory may not be less than zero

Hello,


I am having an issue with adjusting 1 item out of stock (MYOB stock shows 1 on hand), it won't record the transaction and the following error message pops up "The value of your inventory may not be less than zero". 

 

How do i fix this?

 

Thanks for your help.

        Hi Valy,

         

        Thanks for the update.

         

        My apologies for the late reply. It appears that the error message "Value of your inventory may not be less than zero" is often associated with issues in building or adjusting inventory items. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue:

         

        • Check the inventory levels of the items you are trying to build or adjust. Ensure that there is sufficient quantity on hand to perform the operation.
        • If you are trying to build an item, refer to the helpful article, Building Items. This article provides detailed steps on how to correctly build items in MYOB.
        • If you are trying to adjust an inventory item, ensure that the adjustment does not result in a negative inventory value. MYOB does not allow the inventory value to go below zero.

         

        If the problem persists, please provide more details about the actions leading to this error for a more accurate solution.
