Bug Description

v 6.0.2 latest release, anglo-saxon installed

I initially thought this was a simple accounting issue, but the problem is worse. When I import inventory balances for a single location it picks up stock from other locations (that are within the same tree?). This means that even though I don't change stock numbers there are journal entries being created.

Also the accounting entries for any stock adjustment arising from a physical inventory should be:
For a stock reduction:
DR Price Difference Account
CR Stock Variation Account

For a stock increase:
DR Stock Variation Account
CR Price Difference Account

The stock variation account is being used, but the offset is going to Stock Input Account.

I have enclosed a video to show what is happening, but this is a serious problem.

You are getting my results on the quantities. Graeme has pointed out that that in the location I should be able to put in the correct offset account for the loss/gain - I have set this up for location Inventory Loss and reran the process - the correct account for the loss is now there, so you can ignore the accounting issue - just the stock number & source issue to resolve.

Thanks

Hi Kevin,

I emailed you privately so they won't quite understand your comment.
 Basically and correct me if I'm wrong, the only bug (as opposed to
configuration issue) that we are now interested in is

When you use the import inventory wizard, it returns the incorrect stock
quantity for the location, which appears to be the quantity of the entire
tree rather than the individually selected location.

What we no longer think is a bug (or perhaps never thought)

Stock quantities related from validating the inventory. (I think this was
always correct)
Accounting entries related to validating the inventory. (I think this was
corrected by amending Inventory Loss location properties)

So just the wizard!

Hello Rohan,

I have checked this again with the latest trunk and the issue are resolve which is related incorrect stock quantity.

But in past it's reproducible which is described in comment #1 and comment#3 's video.

So this bug 's status should be "Fix released " not an "Invalid".

Thanks.
