What is the difference between the "Total Differences" amount and the "Total Absolute Difference" amounts on the Physical Inventory Differences report?
Response:
The "Total Differences" amount represents the net difference between the counted inventory and the system-recorded inventory. This value can be positive or negative, depending on whether the counted inventory is greater or less than the system-recorded inventory. The "Total Absolute Difference" amount represents the sum of all individual differences, regardless of whether they are positive or negative, providing a measure of the total magnitude of differences without considering their direction.
More Information:
- The "Total Differences" amount gives you the net discrepancy.
- The "Total Absolute Difference" amount gives you the total magnitude of discrepancies.
