When you purchase, you use an item ID,  When you sell you use the item id. 

This is how the program accepts and removes specific inventory items.

If you are referring to the General Ledger balance for Inventory, make sure that you verify the G/L Accounts used in Maintain Inventory Items on your Items. If you don't have the proper G/L Accounts specified for the Inventory and Cost of Sales Accounts, then while your Quantities in Inventory may be relieved when you make a sale, the Inventory G/L Balance may not be relieved.

In order for the cost of sale to get calculated and posted when a sale is made, the Item ID's Item Class must be Stock or Assembly, Serialized Stock and Serialized Assembly.

Actually, Cost of Sales entries are posted for all Item Classes except Description Only, Activity Items, and Charge Items. Cost of Sales entries are calculated and posted for Service Items, Labor Items, and Non-Stocked Items too.
