Inventory Ledger

The Inventory Ledger is FBA's bank statement: for any SKU and period it shows opening balance, receipts, customer orders, returns, warehouse adjustments (lost, found, damaged, disposed), transfers, and closing balance. When physical reality and dashboard counts diverge, this is where the divergence is documented.

It grounds two money processes: reimbursement claims (an unreconciled negative adjustment with no matching reimbursement is a claim waiting to be filed) and shrink accounting. A monthly ledger reconciliation — adjustments versus reimbursements ledgers — is the habit that catches what automation quietly missed.
