    Whenever the order is shipped or an order shipment is generated, the quantity gets increased in the inventory report under Catalog > Inventory Report.

    Whenever the order is cancelled or a new credit memo is generated, the quantity and salable quantity get increased (*only if “Return to Stock” is ticked while generating the credit memo from the backend) in the inventory report under Catalog > Inventory Report. The admin can also export the inventory report in CSV or XML format.

    Whenever the admin updates the product quantity from Catalog > Products > Product edit, the quantity and salable quantity get updated in the inventory report under Catalog > Inventory Report.
