Check earlier history before reversing inventory

Find the latest posted movement when newer proposals have not changed stock.

Updated 2026-11-11

Inventory can show Earlier movement history needs checking while identifying the latest posted movement. Newer proposals may appear first in history even though they have not changed stock. The reversal target must come from posted activity, not simply the newest visible row.

Use Check earlier movements to continue the supported history scan. Review the resulting candidate and its original reason before preparing a reversal. Keep pending proposals separate from the posted quantity and value you are trying to correct.

If Stock history changed appears, restart the latest-posted-movement check. Activity may have been added while the earlier scan was running, so the previous candidate is no longer enough evidence for a current decision.

Only use Reverse latest movement when the current screen offers it for an eligible source. If the control remains unavailable, inspect the journal states and dependencies rather than offsetting an arbitrary older movement. This sequence preserves moving-average cost history and keeps the eventual correction tied to the right posted stock event.
