GL VS COUNT

[s11022m]

Good morning all, I work for a huge auto group, 30+ stores every year I do inventory I come up within 3% or less of the GL on a 800k inventory Other stores in the group always have huge pickups. My fixed ops director wants to know why ????? seems I am doing everything right and the other stores are doing something wrong. any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

haha - maybe he wants to know what you're doing right so he can get on them about what they're doing wrong

I would first check and make sure all your invoices are being posted properly. If you use R @ R it would be screen 0504. Do you code your own outside purchase invoices? Do you code your own GM invoices or whatever car line you have. This should be done at least monthly any way. If something gets posted wrong it is easier to fix it at that time.

There are at least four dozen reasons for GL to DMS variances to occur and it is rarely a single item. Congratulations on achieving the three percent threshold before your sister stores. This is a worthy goal by your FOD as it is much better to have the profit every month than once per year. The hallmark for this variance is one percent.

To my knowledge there is only one set of Parts Consultants that truly helps with this issue; message me if you want their information as I don't want to advertise on this site.
