I am currently using Manager.io for accounting and need your guidance regarding inventory accounting .While creating inventory items and recording purchase transactions, the value is being recorded under “Inventory on Hand (Asset)”. However, I would like to understand how to correctly manage or reflect inventory under the purchase or expense side, if applicable. Could you please guide me on the correct process for Recording inventory purchases properly Understanding how inventory flows between asset and expense (cost of sales) Ensuring entries are reflected correctly in financial statements.
@shraddha_kitture
Purchases → Asset (Inventory)
Sales → Expense (Cost of Sales)
Inventory only becomes an expense when it is sold.
Read the guides on inventory first: https://www.manager.io/guides/inventory-items
You need to use the recalculate button asl well in invengtories.
Test things out and ask questions if you have any
