# Do Not Allow Physical Quantity Editing in Grid.
**YouTube:** [How to Disable Quantity Editing in the Grid in Physical Stock Verification (PUV)?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udODaxJ93x8)
## How to Disable Quantity Editing in the Grid in Physical Stock Verification (PUV) ?
In this tutorial, we will learn how to use the **"Do Not Allow Physical Quantity Editing in Grid"** feature in the **Physical Stock Verification of Purchase Voucher** module. This feature prevents users from manually editing the **Physical Quantity** field in the verification grid, ensuring that stock quantities are updated only through barcode scanning or the designated verification process.
***
### Objective of This Feature
* Prevent manual editing of physical quantities.
* Ensure stock verification is performed through barcode scanning.
* Improve inventory accuracy.
* Minimize manual entry errors.
* Maintain reliable physical stock verification records.
***
### Access to the Physical Stock Verification Configuration
* Open the **Physical Stock Verification of Purchase Voucher** module.
* Click on **Configuration**.
* Locate the option labeled as:
> **"Do Not Allow Physical Quantity Editing in Grid"**
Enabling this option locks the **Physical Quantity** field and prevents manual modifications within the grid.
***
### Observe the Default Behavior
Before enabling the feature, let's review the default behavior.
**Action**
* Select the required **Voucher Type**.
* Choose the **Purchase Voucher** for physical stock verification.
* Scan the item barcode or enter the physical quantities.
**Observation**
The system allows physical quantities to be updated in two ways:
* By scanning the item barcode.
* By manually entering or modifying the value directly in the **Physical Quantity** grid.
Since the feature is disabled, the **Physical Quantity** field remains fully editable.
***
### Now, let's observe the behavior after enabling the feature.
* Return to the **Configuration** window.
* Enable the option: **"Do Not Allow Physical Quantity Editing in Grid"**
* Save the configuration.
**Observe the Functionality**
* **Manual Entry Test:** Try entering or modifying the **Physical Quantity** directly in the grid.
* **Result:** The **Physical Quantity** field is now locked and does not allow manual editing.
* **Barcode Scanning Test:** Scan the item barcode to update the physical quantity.
* After scanning, try modifying the updated value directly in the grid.
**Result**
The physical quantity is updated successfully through barcode scanning. However, the system does not allow any manual modification of the scanned quantity in the grid.
***
### Key Benefits
* Prevents unauthorized manual quantity changes.
* Ensures stock verification is performed through barcode scanning.
* Improves the accuracy of physical stock verification.
* Reduces data entry errors.
* Enhances inventory control and audit reliability.
***
### Best Practice Tips
* Enable this feature when barcode-based stock verification is part of your standard workflow.
* Ensure barcode scanners are properly configured before beginning physical verification.
* Use manual editing only when business processes specifically require it.
* Regularly review verification records to ensure accurate inventory reconciliation.
***
### Final Outcome
When **"Do Not Allow Physical Quantity Editing in Grid"** is enabled, Logic ERP locks the **Physical Quantity** field during Purchase Voucher Physical Stock Verification. Quantities can still be updated through barcode scanning, but users cannot manually edit them in the grid, ensuring a more accurate, secure, and controlled stock verification process.
