The process of inventory reconciliation to the general ledger in JDE can be complex. There are integrity reports to review, transactions to process, batches to post and accounts to balance.

RapidReconciler drastically reduces the reconciliation cycle time by analyzing discrepancies by the following factors:

• Application setup. Processing options, data selection, and automatic accounting instructions make JDE a very flexible software package. But beware! Improper set up can drive you crazy at month end! RapidReconciler’s intuitive messaging and integrity reports can get you to the root cause quickly.

• Timing of transactions versus reporting. Have manufacturing and shipping been completed? Have all batches been posted properly? Use RapidReconciler’s Period Close feature to see the impact of open work/sales orders on the reconciliation process and ensure all postings to the GL are complete.

• Incomplete transaction processing. Ever have a shipment confirmation transaction stop midway? Problems reversing purchase order receipts? Use RapidReconciler’s item roll forward validation report to be sure all transactions have completed fully.

• Software modifications or bugs. Has your version of JDE been modified? Need a SAR? RapidReconciler’s document level analysis tool point directly to the area of concern.

• External interfaces. Running an external warehouse management system? Interfacing inventory transactions directly into JDE can be tricky. Run RapidReconciler during test mode to ensure all systems are go!
