Inventory cost adjusting automatically

Quickbooks Desktop

 

I have set up several Inventory Items. I am now adding a Vendor's bill and using the Items tab. A pop-up box came up asking if I wanted to adjust the cost of the inventory with the price of the item I was entering. Without thinking about that I opted 'yes' and asked it to 'not' ask me again.

 

Oops - - now I need to correct this and not have it automatically adjust my inventory cost.

 

How to I 'de-select' this?

 

Thanks!

Inventory cost adjusting automatically

Thanks for visiting the Community, @freefallbrewery. Selecting "Yes" to the pop-up message can affect your cost from the previous parts. 

 

I'd recommend you run the Inventory Valuation Summary report first and look for the adjusted items to make sure everything looks good. Here's how: 

 

  1. Select Reports, then click Inventory.
  2. Select the Inventory Valuation Summary, then set the dates to All.
  3. Double-click the item in question. 

 

Should you need to make adjustments, follow the steps outlined in this article: Adjust your inventory quantity or value in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

To bring back the pop-up message again, follow the steps below: 

 

  1. Go to the Edit menu, then select Preferences.
  2. Click General in My Preferences tab. 
  3. Check the Inventory and Purchase Orders are Active box. 

 

The next time you do it, you should see the prompt. Ensure to select "No" moving forward.
