Manifest
The state-system transport document for a transfer between licensees: packages, quantities, driver, vehicle, route, departure time. Received tag by tag with accepted quantities. In NMS2S: Sent → Ready to Receive → Fully / Partially Received.
Why it matters for reconciliation: inbound stock enters the store's records through the manifest, so a mistake there flows into inventory, cost and every later count. Receiving tag by tag against it is where most shelf discrepancies are caught or created.
Example: a manifest lists 30 units on one tag and the store counts 28. The receiving record accepts 28, the manifest moves to Partially Received, and the invoice should be corrected to 28 through a credit memo. A tag on the invoice that is not on the manifest is held and sent back.

- Accepted quantity
The quantity a receiver actually counts and accepts for a package on an inbound manifest, which may differ from the manifested or invoiced quantity. Invoice quantity should equal accepted quantity; a difference becomes a credit memo.
- Transfer
Movement of packages between licensees (or between an operator's own licenses), documented by a manifest in the state system and received tag by tag.
