Quick tip: Negative on-hand quantities are usually a symptom, not the real problem.
They can point to issues like parts billed before receipt, special orders not cleared correctly, late adjustments, or posting errors that keep building over time.
The longer they sit, the harder it gets to trust your parts inventory numbers.
Reviewing negative on-hand activity regularly can help your team catch small process gaps before they turn into bigger inventory variance.
