Discrepancies in Inventory Quantities (Reports vs Product/Services View)

The past several weeks I've noticed multiple discrepancies in how QBO is reporting Inventory Quantity.

 

For instance, when I view a particular product in the PRODUCTS/SERVICES view, the quantity is (correctly) listed as 0.

 

But when I use the INVENTORY SUMMARY report (with today's date), a different (incorrect) quantity for the same product is displayed (QTY = -2)

 

These errors are dangerous, since we use these Inventory Reports to determine how much product needs to be ordered from the applicable vendor. These QBO errors are causing us to lose money by ordering too much of a product we don't need. 

 

 

I've attached two screen shots of the PRODUCT/SERVICES view and the INVENTORY SUMMARY Report for a product with this name in our QBO System: 

 

   ** NuLeaf - Gummy - CBD - 450mg -Strawberry

 

We first noticed these errors a few weeks ago. They don't happen with every product, so we haven't identified why it happens with some products and not others.

 

Has anyone else noticed these Inventory Quantity Reporting glitches?
