Flipkart Advantage inventory reconciliation is a feature that helps you to reconcile your physical stock at the fulfillment
center through the seller portal
• Inventory reconciliation will only count the physically present stock in the fulfilment centre. In-transit orders to the
customers, fulfilment centre and in-transit returns will not be counted.
• Inventory reconciliation is not a real time feature. You can reconcile for a past period as below:
• From – 1st January, 2015
• To – Seven days prior to the present date
• Maximum Period of reconciliation – Six months
• Minimum Period of reconciliation – One week
For example: On 10th July, 2015, you can reconcile from 1st January, 2015 to 30th June, 2015.
• Mismatch in stock due to reasons like misplaced, lost etc. is reported as variance
• You can download and save the report as a CSV file.
