Evidence trail

01 — The problem

The audit should not disappear into spreadsheets, chats, and shared folders.

Stock sheets arrive by email. Counts come back as photographed paper. Explanations live in message threads. By the time a report is drafted, the reasoning behind it has to be reassembled from memory.

tellcount replaces that coordination with one governed workflow. Every later decision attaches to the preserved baseline in sequence.

02 — One audit, one record

From stock sheet to signed report, nothing loses its context.

Every material action carries its actor, timestamp, assignment, supporting evidence, review state, and final approval.

  1. STAGE 01

    Baseline uploaded and validated

    The declared stock position is checked and preserved unchanged.

  2. STAGE 02

    Zones and auditors assigned

    Managers allocate locations and teams before counting begins.

  3. STAGE 03

    Counts and evidence captured

    Quantities, photographs, and remarks are recorded at the point of observation.

  4. STAGE 04

    Variances investigated

    Differences are separated from the baseline and routed for movement checks.

  5. STAGE 05

    Branch explanations submitted

    Branch teams respond in context with supporting movement records.

  6. STAGE 06

    Independent approval completed

    Reviewers who did not perform the count preserve separation of duties.

  7. STAGE 07

    Final record locked and reported

    Reports are generated from the locked record rather than rebuilt.

04 — Fieldwork

Made for the moment the evidence is created.

Auditors always know which zone they are in and which item they are on. Quantity, photo evidence, and remarks sit on one screen.

05 — Discrepancy governance

A discrepancy is not just a number. It is a chain of decisions.

The baseline, observation, movement record, branch explanation, evidence, and approval stay distinguishable at every step.
