GapDetail vs summary

A stated sign convention makes variance interpretable, while detail-to-summary reconciliation catches omitted, duplicated, or mistyped entries.

Arrange in the correct order
  1. 1. Investigate and explain material differences
  2. 2. Reconcile detailed entries to the summary
  3. 3. Calculate variances and cash movement
  4. 4. Classify planned, actual, inflow, and outflow entries
  5. 5. Define the period, categories, and sign convention
