It accepts an array of IDs so you can batch the request into a single call, which is significantly faster. ## OpenAPI ````yaml GET /quickbooks-desktop/inventory-adjustments/{id} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Conductor API version: 0.0.1 servers: - url: https://api.conductor.is/v1 security: - BearerAuth: [] paths: /quickbooks-desktop/inventory-adjustments/{id}: get: summary: Retrieve an inventory adjustment description: >- Retrieves an inventory adjustment by ID. **IMPORTANT:** If you need to fetch multiple specific inventory adjustments by ID, use the list endpoint instead with the `ids` parameter.

For public custom fields visible in the UI, such as those added by the QuickBooks user, this is always "0".
