I know that the idea has been discussed more than once in more than one way during the previous years and @Tut welcomed the idea at more than topic.
Since July 2014 , @lubos has responded to a member with the following:
The latest version (14.7.35) now includes new tab called Inventory Adjustments which allows to record inventory write-offs much easier than through journal entries. (write-ons, write-ups, write-downs coming soon)
Now we have been waiting for almost 9 years for the inventory model to be added or improved.
Is this idea still under development and a solution will be considered by @lubos .

There have been numerous changes in the last 9 years. If you still have the version you refer to then also install the latest version and compare.
The inventory “module” is actually a series of Tabs that you can enable in Settings, this includes Inventory writte-offs that your quote refers to.
A good starting point is to review the Guides Guides | Manager and Scroll to “Inventory”. You can see what is available to manage inventory
@eko @Joe91 check this to make the idea clear:

Be renamed to - Inventory Adjustments
Permit both the “addition” as well as the “deduction” to an Inventory Item.
That the default Allocation (account) be “Inventory - Cost” - not Suspense, but still allowing for alternate Allocation selections.
This would bring all inventory adjustments (+/-) under a single processing format rather then the usage of two alternate processes as currently required for ent…

I am closing topic. The original thread is still in ideas. Discussion should occur there.
