Completing Weekly Instant Issue Debit Card Inventory

Inventory Balancing Procedures

Under dual control, complete inventory weekly. 

Note: For CR825 Single Hopper Machines, personal and business debit card inventory is posted together (personal + business). For the Sigma DS4 Multi-hopper Machine, personal and business debit card inventory is posted separate/independent of one another.

  4. The results for each field are as follows:
    • Expected - Auto-populates with posted card activity
    • Actual - Auto-populates with card counts entered above
    • Difference- Boxes turn green if balanced, and yellow if actuals differ from expected
        • Recount the cards, under dual control, to ensure accuracy.
        • See Tracking Debit Card Inventory Changes in Entrust and consider the following:
          • Did you receive additional cards? Confirm inventory activity in Entrust
          • Did you add cards to the machine? Confirm inventory activity in Entrust
          • Did you have quality rejects? Were the rejects added to the destruction log?
          • Did you remove in machine rejects? Were the rejects added to the destruction log?
      • If you still show a difference, email _Deposit Svc - Instant Issue Card Stock.
  5. Access the Inventory Weekly Balancing Worksheet from J:Instant Issue\Weekly Balancing Sheets\CHOOSE REGION\CHOOSE OFFICE.
