Stock on Hand Reconciliation report
Overview
Find out how to reconcile your Cin7 Omni inventory with Xero or QuickBooks Online with the Stock on Hand Reconciliation report.
Stock on hand reconciliation is the end-of-month (or, end-of-period) process of comparing your Cin7 Omni inventory to your Xero or QuickBooks Online inventory.
Your basic goal is to ensure that the closing balance of your Omni inventory matches the closing balance of your Xero or QuickBooks Online inventory. You’ve successfully reconciled your stock on hand when your closing balances match.
If your closing balances don’t match, you need to review the period’s inventory-related transactions in Omni and your accounting platform. Somewhere you’ll find a discrepancy—like an adjustment that wasn’t synced, or a purchase order with a different exchange rate than its bill. You must find and fix the discrepancy so your inventories balance.
Reconcile stock on hand
To make stock on hand reconciliation easy, Omni provides the Stock on Hand Reconciliation report.
In this monthly report, you’ll find your Omni inventory’s closing balance as well as a list of transactions that added to (debited) or subtracted from (credited) the value of your inventory that month.
This information is all you need from Omni to perform stock on hand reconciliation. You’ll need to find the complementary information in Xero and QuickBooks Online using their report features.

FAQs
Why doesn’t Historic Stock Valuations match Stock on Hand Reconciliation?
Don’t expect the values in the Historic Stock Valuations report and the Stock on Hand Reconciliation report to match.
These reports serve different purposes (historical valuations versus monthly reconciliation), gather transactions with different criteria (date that stock moves versus date of invoice), and display different data (line items versus transactions).
