Description
Reference: Memo, Expandable
This is the description of the stock adjustment reason and is only used for reference purposes.
Adjustment account
This is the account that will be filled in by default into the Stock adjustment allocation account field when a Stock adjustment reason is selected for the Stock adjustment. This provides a way for users to select a different allocation account while not having to know anything about the General ledger.
If you leave the Adjustment account empty for a stock adjustment reason, then when that reason is selected on the Stock adjustment form, the Cost of sales account for the item will be filled into the Stock adjustment allocation account field.
