Audit

This article describes the process of getting a fresh count of your inventory in Simple RFID

This feature is currently only available for customers using our Shopify integration

What is an Audit?

An Audit is essentially a full or partial recount of your current inventory for a specific location. While you are scanning these products, you will be comparing the items the scanner picks up, and the count on Shopify. This is useful if you want the current inventory counts to be synced to Shopify. After you perform an Audit, you will need to visit the Resolve & Sync center to push these counts to Shopify.


Audit page

The Audit page is located in the Simple RFID Web Portal. Select Audit from the navigation menu

The inventory counts from Shopify will be loaded in, and the Scanned counts (this will always be 0 at the start). The Scanned count is the total amount of tags for a specific product that have been picked up in Scans for this specific Audit.

While you are scanning, the products will be put into three separate categories:

  • Under Expected: Shopify has more items than you scanned
  • Over Expected: Shopify has less items than you scanned
  • Matched: Shopify and your scanned amount are the same

These categories will be used to resolve any discrepancies later in the process.
