What Is Displayed in the Exchange Inventory Balance?

The Inventory Monitoring routine records the inventory position when the consistency check is performed.
In summary, the inventory displayed in this routine corresponds to exchanges that have not yet been completed with the supplier, meaning items that have already been negotiated and are still awaiting action from the supplier, and that appear on the Inventory/Exchange screen when the consistency check for that day is completed.
When a return invoice is issued to the supplier or when the item is removed from the inventory/exchange, after a new consistency check is performed, the system no longer considers that item because it is no longer part of the exchange inventory.
Important: exchanges made with end consumers are not included in this validation.

Data – Commercial Monitoring


1. The Controllership Sales Cost, used to calculate the contribution amount, is the cost including tax.
If the “Uses Average Cost” flag is enabled in the ERP Price Administration routine settings, it will not be possible to verify the sales cost.

2. Entry Amount is the sum of the Entry column in Entry and Exit and the cost including tax of internal transfers.

3. Exit Amount is the sum of the Exit column in Entry and Exit and the cost including tax of internal transfers.

4. The Controllership Total Purchases is the sum of the 2entry amounts and 3exit amounts from Commercial Monitoring.

5. Controllership does not retrieve store-to-store transfer information directly from Inventory. Only outbound invoices of the transfer type are included. The “Accounts for Store Inventory Transfer” option in the Entry and Exit report parameters must remain unchecked.

6. Controllership uses the entry types included in the Entry and Exit settings to determine what is considered a merchandise purchase.

7. Controllership uses the exit types included in the Entry and Exit settings to determine which purchased merchandise was transferred or returned.

8. An Internal Transfer creates an exit from the level 1 commercial category of the selected product and creates an entry in the commercial category specified in the Commercial Category field. Always record transfers with operation type = entry (requires ERP 4.1.36+).

Important: Daily actual data will only be processed, sent, and updated after the POS consistency check.
