Checkbox Functionality
| Checkbox Field | Purpose |
| Available Despite Damage | Indicates whether the adjusted quantity, even though damaged, should still be considered available for use. This is useful when damaged items can still be sold at a discount, repurposed, or reworked. |
Example Use Case
- Scenario: During a monthly cycle count, a warehouse team finds that 10 units of an item are damaged but still usable for discounted sale.
- Action:
- They create an Inventory Adjustment record.
- Enter Quantity Adjusted as 10 units.
- Select Type = Damage.
- Check Available Despite Damage to indicate these 10 units remain available for fulfillment (at a discounted price).
- Add a note in Remarks/Notes explaining the damage and next steps.
- They create an Inventory Adjustment record.
This process ensures stock numbers remain correct without excluding damaged-but-sellable items from availability.
