Reconcile

Audit discrepancies (a different quantity or location than expected was entered during Audit process) or items not audited (because they were not found, for example) are displayed on the Reconcile screen. The Reconcile Audit screen allows you to correct any discrepancies found during auditing, such as mismatched locations or quantities that do not match.

Note - Expected indicates the "Current Quantity" that the system currently expects in the system. A discrepancy indicates the difference in the expected count and reconcile count i.e.If the user counts 9 but the system expected 10 at the time this column will show -1. If there was no prior Audit Count, the column will show nothing - blank (not 0). Checkout indicates the current number of checkouts for the Item. Reconcile indicates the count entered by the user. By default, it is the current count plus the count under the discrepancy.

  1. Reconcile Quantity - Enter the count you want to report as audited. For example, if 6 laptops were expected but only 3 were found, you can enter 3, which will become the new expected quantity. Or, if after researching the discrepancy you find the additional laptop, enter 6 in the Reconcile Quantity field.
