Record a Stock Movement

Goal: Log a manual change to stock quantities — an adjustment, a consumption, or any movement not automatically generated by an order delivery or a maintenance task.

Stock movements are also created automatically when you receive items from a purchase order (see [Receive Order Items](/stock-and-supply/procurement/receive-order-items)) or when a maintenance task consumes materials. Use this guide for manual adjustments only.

Before you start

  • You must have permission to record stock movements. If you don’t see the Create button, ask your fleet administrator.
  • The stock item and storage location must already exist in the system.

Steps

  1. From the main navigation, open Stock & Supply.

  2. In the sub-navigation, select Movements.

    The list shows all recorded movements in reverse chronological order, with columns: Date, Movement Type, Item, Quantity, Storage, Recorded On, and Recorded By.
