A physical inventory can only be post to the ledger in case there is a difference between "Quantity count" and "Book Quantity" for a product. Otherwise there will not be anything to post to the ledger.
For instance a product which "Quantity count" is 6700 units at a given date, while "Book Quantity" in Openbravo is 6000 units.
That physical inventory can be posted after processed, if the cost of the product has been calculated.
Physical Inventory posting creates the following accounting entries if inventory increases:
Account | Debit | Credit |
Product Asset | (Quantity Count - Book Quantity) * Cost of the Product | |
Warehouse Differences | (Quantity Count - Book Quantity) * Cost of the Product |
