[MS_AccessPros] Table approach for Inventory database

 

I am in the process of designing on paper a simple inventory database that will track inventory coming in and going out as well as calculating a balance.  I am confused as to how to design the part of the table that will actually keep track of the numerical transactions.   Do I use two quantity columns and run it like a check book with debits and credits or should I use one column and use positive numbers and negative numbers.  My fear is that someone will forget to put in a negative number when they are withdrawing inventory and then the balance will be off.   I checked the sample database that comes with Access and they use only one column.

 

Your thoughts are appreciated.
