Adjust Consumable Quantity

Overview

Within the Enterprise Service Management (ESM) system consumable quantities can be adjusted by several means. This article provides details on to do so.

Tip
A location or room remains on the Consumable item's Locations tab after its quantity drops to 0, so you can see locations where you'd expect to have stock. The Remove action on the row will remove a location or room with 0 quantity from the list.
