Count Variance Review

Review cycle-count discrepancies, gate adjustments through manager approval, and post to the append-only ledger.

Why this matters

Unresolved variances snowball into shrinkage, mis-ships, and client disputes. A structured review queue with a manager approval gate ensures every discrepancy gets a decision — approve, reject, or recount — with a full audit trail. For 3PLs, this is your defense against inventory claims.

Who this is designed for

Overview

How Count Variance Review works

The Count Variance Review screen is where warehouse managers resolve discrepancies found during cycle counts. When a counted quantity differs from the expected system quantity, it creates a variance record that requires managerial review before any ledger adjustment can post.

Managers can approve adjustments (which post to the inventory ledger as an explicit additional entry, never an overwrite), reject them (triggering a recount), or add notes for investigation. Every decision is recorded with timestamps, user attribution, and reason codes for full audit compliance.

The approval gate is the discipline that prevents silent inventory corrections. Combined with the append-only ledger, this screen is the spine of inventory accuracy.
