Hi,
I am having an issue where inventory adjustments convert to journal entries and double the COGS totals and credits inventory for the original amount and uncategorized income for the additional amount. For example, I enter an inventory adjustment for an item that should have a COGS debit of $1 and and inventory credit of $1. Instead, quickbooks converts this to a journal entry with a COGS debit of $2, an inventory credit of $1, and an uncategorized income credit of $1.
I thought this might be a negative inventory issue but this is happening even when the adjustment brings the inventory down to zero and not negative. Additionally, in some cases, the issue seems to arise after rebuilding the quickbooks file.
I am operating on a Mac via quickbooks 2019.
Thoughts on why this is happening? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Once done, you can rebuild your company file to fix any errors or data damage that was found. Here's how:
