Reconciliation

Automate inventory reconciliation

Inventory reconciliation confirms that your recorded inventory quantities and values match physical counts and goods receipt records. Discrepancies — shrinkage, unrecorded receipts, data entry errors — need to be identified and resolved before your accounts are accurate. Rima automates this entirely. Send your inventory ledger and count data via Slack or email and get back a completed, audit-ready Excel reconciliation.
