inventory write off

Hi @NauticalJim , Create a sub account of COGS called loss/theft/spoilage and use that account when you do an inventory adjustment.  Lower the qty of items that need to be written off. Refresh qbo with clear cache and browsing history. You could use credit memo too for replacing inventory sent to customer. Please see the post  and this post . Comment back, cheers.

Hello,

I am new to this community so I hope this is the right place to post a question. I have goods that I can't sell any more. How do I write off these inventory goods as an expense or as a loss?  

Which are the specific accounts that must be affected? What is the mechanism in QB to do this? 

What happens later if I am able to sell them at a price less that what I paid for them? How would I enter such a sale?

Thank you.

This one's a bit of a puzzler, huh? let's dive in with some things you might check. You can print single labels fine, so the connection's gotta be okay. But multiple labels? Maybe there's a hiccup in the process queue or spooler.

I've seen cases where the print queue looks fine but has a backlog. One trick is clearing the print spooler on windows 10. Sometimes a stalled state happens if there's a "ghost" job in the queue, blocking new jobs. Head to services.msc for stopping the spooler, poke around in C:\windows\System32\spool\Printers, and ditch any files there before restarting.

Also, make sure your QuickBooks enterprise is up to date. Sometimes, printing quirks get patched in updates, so keeping QuickBooks and Zebra driver updated might solve it. Try tweaking the printing settings in QuickBooks, especially for your specific label format.

Now, while testing on Windows 11, check for any surprises. newer OS versions might handle USB stuff differently, and it may just skip over whatever glitch you're seeing now. Let me know how it goes or if you spot anything new!
