Inventory quantities support up to three decimal places. The movement form displays the tracked product's unit beside Quantity, so enter the number in that unit rather than assuming that a package, box and individual item are interchangeable.
Before receiving or issuing stock, compare the source document's unit with the tracked product. A bill-linked receipt requires the same unit and an explicit confirmation that the bill line records the same product. Correct source selection is as important as the numeric quantity.
For a partial movement, enter only the quantity supported by that event and review the proposed stock cost. Do not round away a meaningful quantity difference simply because the source uses more precision than the supported register.
After journal posting, inspect the saved quantity delta and current stock. A submitted movement reserves supported source quantities during review but does not change posted stock immediately. If the quantity was wrong, use the supported source-owned reversal and correction sequence instead of recording an unexplained compensating movement.
