Trying to create inventory adjustments into Netsuite and we are able to load the adjustments successfully if the value is positive but if the value is negative, we get the message " failed to save record because you must enter a negative quantity"

The value in the payload is, for example, -10 so its almost like its not recognizing the - in front of the number

has anyone seen this before?

thanks
