Undo Overview

The undo feature allows you to reverse certain inventory operations:

• Reversible Operations: Not all operations can be undone - only specific types
• Audit Trail: All undo operations create new log entries for tracking
• Safety Feature: Prevents accidental permanent loss of inventory data
• Immediate Effect: Undo operations take effect immediately upon confirmation
• Quantity Restoration: Reverses quantity changes back to previous state

Undoable Operations

The following operations can typically be undone:

• Undo Import: Reverse inventory additions from CSV imports
• Undo Deduction: Reverse inventory deductions (restores quantity)
• Undo Adjustment: Reverse manual quantity adjustments
• Verification: System checks if operation can be undone before showing undo button
• Undo Indicator: Undo button appears on log entries where undo is possible

Undo Process

How to undo an operation:

1. Navigate to the Adjustment History page
2. Find the log entry you want to undo (use filters if needed)
3. Look for the undo button in the log entry's action column
4. Click the undo button
5. Confirm the undo operation in the confirmation dialog
6. The operation is reversed and a new log entry is created
7. Refresh the page to see updated inventory quantities

Undoing Imports

Reverse CSV import operations:

• Quantity Reduction: Reduces inventory quantities by the amount that was imported
• Item Removal: If import added new items, undo may remove them completely
• Batch Undo: Undoing an import affects all items imported in that batch
• Verification: System verifies items still exist before undoing
• Log Entry: Creates "Undo Import" log entry with cause tracking

Undoing Deductions

Reverse inventory deductions (sales, removals, etc.):

• Quantity Restoration: Restores the deducted quantity back to inventory
• Item Recovery: Recovers items that were sold or removed
• Order Context: Works for deductions from orders (Shopify, eBay, POS, etc.)
• Manual Deductions: Can also undo manually created deduction logs
• Log Entry: Creates "Undo Deduction" log entry for audit trail
• Use Case: Useful for order cancellations or returns

Undoing Adjustments

Reverse manual quantity adjustments:

• Quantity Reversal: Reverses the adjustment quantity back to original
• Positive Adjustments: Undoing a positive adjustment reduces quantity
• Negative Adjustments: Undoing a negative adjustment increases quantity
• Correction Tool: Useful for fixing accidental incorrect adjustments
• Log Entry: Creates new adjustment log with opposite quantity

Important Considerations

Things to keep in mind when undoing operations:

• Irreversible: Once undone, you may not be able to undo the undo (depends on operation)
• Order Impact: Undoing deductions from orders may affect order fulfillment status
• Inventory Sync: Undo operations may affect synced inventory on platforms (Shopify, eBay, etc.)
• Timing: It's best to undo operations soon after they occur, before downstream effects
• Verification: Always verify the undo had the intended effect
• Audit Trail: All undos are logged for complete audit history
