You can do this by going to Reports > Inventory > Inventory Valuation Summary, and change the date to the specific date you want to verify. Click on refresh to get the inventory count for that date. If the inventory count is incorrect, it could be due to an incorrect adjustment that was made. If an item was adjusted incorrectly into a P&L account rather than inventory, you would need to post a journal to correct the differences. However, this would only correct the P&L account and balance sheet account inventory, not the adjustment itself. If the discrepancy is only for one item/SKU, it could be due to a number of reasons. It could be that the stock ledger report is not updated, or there could be an error in the physical inventory worksheet. It's also possible that the item record is incorrect. To correct this, you would need to identify the source of the discrepancy and make the necessary corrections. This could involve updating the stock ledger report, correcting the physical inventory worksheet, or updating the item record. If you're unable to identify the source of the discrepancy, you may need to conduct a physical count of the inventory for that location to verify the actual inventory count. Please note that it's always best to book the stock correctly in the first place to avoid such discrepancies. If it's not possible to reopen the previous year to correct the booking, you may need to make adjustments in the current year to correct the inventory count. Remember, any changes made to the inventory count should be reflected in the stock ledger report, the physical inventory worksheet, and the item record to ensure consistency across all records.
