What is an Audit?

An Audit verifies that your inventory records match your actual on-hand inventory. You can perform a Full Audit of your entire inventory, a Partial Audit of selected products, or a Template Audit to verify products within a specific brand, category, department, or other predefined group.

During the Audit, the system compares the RFID tags you scan with the current inventory quantities in your partner system, making it easy to identify discrepancies between your physical inventory and your recorded inventory.

Audits are the recommended way to maintain accurate inventory and keep your partner system synchronized with your actual stock levels.

During the review process, the operator compares three inventory counts:

  • Physical Count – The quantity physically verified by the operator.
  • RFID Count – The quantity detected during the RFID audit.
  • Partner Count – The quantity currently recorded in the connected inventory system.

Choosing what to Audit

We recommend using different audit types based on your inventory management goals:

  • Partial Audits are ideal for spot-checking the accuracy of individual products or small groups of items.
  • Template Audits are best for performing cycle counts on targeted inventory, such as high-value merchandise, fast-moving products, specific brands, departments, or other predefined groups.
  • Full Audits should be performed periodically to re-establish inventory accuracy across your entire catalog, such as during year-end inventory or tax reporting.

Smaller, more focused audits are generally easier to manage and allow discrepancies to be reviewed, resolved, and corrected more efficiently through the Review & Resolve process.
