Reconcile card processor deposits

The problem

Card deposits do not match sales and nobody checks why.

Steps

  1. Pull the processor batch report each day
  2. Match it to POS card totals by day
  3. List fees, chargebacks, and holds separately
  4. Investigate any gap over a small set amount
  5. Do a full monthly match before closing the books
