Once you have imported or created inventory items in Dynamics GP you will need to populate the beginning inventory quantities and costs. The easiest way to accomplish this is to enter or import an inventory adjustment transaction. The following are the fields needed for an inventory adjustment import:

Notes

Transaction Date

This should be the date of the physical inventory count or cut off. Dates can be formatted regularly, with slashes, for example: 06/30/2010.

This must be an Item Number that already exists in Dynamics GP.

Unit of Measure

This must be a Unit of Measure that already exists in Dynamics GP and is assigned to the item.
