There are some ways to ensure accurate data entry in your ERP system and resolve discrepancies such as: implement clear data entry guidelines, utilize data validation tools, conduct regular audits, and provide comprehensive training to users.

Your ERP reports aren’t matching reality - inventory counts are off, sales figures don’t add up. Chaos! Instead of blaming users, build a safety net. 1. Set Clear Rules - Define how data should be entered (no shortcuts!). 2. Use Smart Validation - Automate checks to catch errors before they spread. 3. Train & Motivate - Show teams why clean data matters with real examples. 4. Audit Regularly - Spot mistakes early before they become disasters. Accurate data = confident decisions!

Did I re-check my work? Coming from old school, conservative environments, often this work was done in Excel - which is prone to transposition issues when you're relying to auto-delimiting functionalities. Even if your first 150k lines of data look fine... it only takes 6-10 lines to throw your first analysis into chaos. How can I ensure accurate data entry? Having a controlled input environment that is ux driven helps. Also understanding how the staff does their work and their mentality when inputting is a strong indicator. Training and monitoring are key to ensuring this - sometimes through private conversations, but with a close and transparent team, a bit of public shaming/team show-and-tell goes a long way.

I will check the data carefully before entering it, use validation rules, and train the team to follow the correct process. I believe that is enough :)

With data discrepancies in your Enterprise Resource Planning system, you may want to review your system plan, and your data gathering methodologies may be too traditional or obsolete. Data sources, sample sizes, the manner of encoding, and the missing of grouping variables like factors and time or season that may affect items like price, origin, or rarity or uniqueness of product or services. Staff and management must meet regularly to compare sources and look at trends and new information available.

Garbage in means garbage out. Great documentation and proper training should help to minimize data discrepancies. In addition, using AI to monitor odd changes in ERP reporting.

It is critical to understand that data entry is done by people. While we can have various validation process baked into the process, it is ultimately up to the people that provides the initial entry, and others to have editing right. Besides having a good internal control, it is important to account for the people involved. Be sure that your team is aware of their impact upon the whole organization, that they play a critical role for the growth of the company, and that the internal control is human centric. There are plenty of systems and protocols, but I think the human element is equally important, harder to mange, but could have outsized impact.
