Price at acceptance
Keep the supplier-approved wholesale price evidence with the date the order was accepted.
Reconciling the market…
Month-end should be a review of the operating record, not an archaeological dig through inboxes and spreadsheets. Build the reporting pack from the approved transactions, then leave submission and remittance with the authorized operator.
THE REPORT IS THE LAST STEP, NOT THE FIRST
The registered wholesale price, order date, fulfilled quantity, delivery result, return, and credit cannot be reconstructed reliably if each fact lives in a different file with a different identifier.
BC Direct Delivery keeps those facts tied to canonical order lines. Month-end then becomes an exception review: missing references, unresolved variances, mismatched quantities, or unapproved adjustments are visible before an authorized person prepares the official file.
THE CONTROLLED HANDOFF
Select the reporting month and identify orders accepted, delivered, returned, or credited during the period.
Compare approved quantities with fulfillment, receipt, and any recorded discrepancy outcome.
Confirm the recorded wholesale price snapshot, invoice obligation, external settlement reference, and approved credit.
Assign unresolved records to an owner instead of hiding them inside a total.
Export the reviewed operational evidence for the authorized supplier team to validate and submit through the required BCLDB process.
MONTH-END CONTROL LIST
The useful unit is not a spreadsheet cell. It is the supplier-retailer-SKU transaction with enough evidence for an operator to explain the amount.
Keep the supplier-approved wholesale price evidence with the date the order was accepted.
Review what was ordered, delivered, returned, replaced, or credited without erasing the original quantities.
Separate operational completion from external payment status so an unpaid invoice is not mistaken for an unfulfilled order.
EXCEPTION-FIRST REVIEW
A controlled close highlights what is incomplete, contradictory, duplicated, or missing approval. Clean records remain available, but operator time is directed toward the few records that can change the result.
The record exists, but the invoice, receipt, return evidence, or external reference has not been attached.
Approved, shipped, received, returned, and credited quantities do not reconcile.
A material adjustment exists without the role, timestamp, reason, and decision required by the pilot procedure.
OPERATING BOUNDARY
The workspace does not claim to calculate or submit every regulatory, tax, fee, deposit, or remittance obligation. BCLDB instructions, the supplier agreement, current law, and the supplier's authorized finance and compliance owners remain authoritative.
PLAIN ANSWERS
No. The current product organizes and reviews the operational evidence. The authorized supplier operator remains responsible for validating and submitting the required information.
Yes, if the supplier can provide approved business records with enough identifiers to match orders, SKUs, deliveries, invoices, returns, and credits.
It remains in an exception queue with its source evidence and assigned decision. The system should not invent a balancing adjustment.
PROVE THE WEDGE BEFORE THE MIGRATION
The founding audit covers a bounded supplier workflow, approved business records, explicit unsupported connections, and a written proceed, narrow, or stop recommendation.
