# Inventory Audit Reports

> See who changed inventory and when across all hubs, catching discrepancies before they cost you stock.

Use the *Invoices > Inventory Audit* tab to create reports based on inventory changes in FieldPulse. Inventory auditing allows you to keep track of all inventory changes for both regular and serialized inventory. You can view historical changes across the board, per team member, or by specific inventory hubs.

## Benefits of Inventory Audit

* Accountability: Know who made changes to the inventory and when.

* Accuracy: Keep track of discrepancies between expected & actual inventory levels.

* Transparency: Ensure all inventory changes are logged and traceable.

By utilizing the Inventory Audit report, you can maintain an accurate and transparent record of all inventory changes, helping you manage your inventory more effectively.
