Sales recon

The daily match of POS tickets to state-system receipts (Metrc receipts or NMS2S ticket IDs) on packages, quantities and totals, with a match rate shown per store.

Why it matters: a sale that never reached the state system, or a state receipt with no sale behind it, is a documentation gap that grows if it is left. Running the match every day keeps the list short and each item recent enough to explain.

Example: say the match runs after close and shows four unmatched tickets. Two might be a sync failure to re-push, one a quantity mismatch from a 5-pack rung as singles, and one a void whose receipt was not voided. Each gets an owner before the next morning.

  • Metrc receipt

    The sales record a POS pushes to Metrc for each ticket: packages (by tag), quantities, totals and the state's five tax fields. The thing a POS ticket must match to in daily reconciliation.

  • Reconciliation

    Matching POS, physical and state-system records: sales to receipts daily, packages to shelf by cycle count weekly, everything at the 30-day count most states require.
