  • Thumbnail for Challenges of Reconciling Parts and Accounting, presented by Total Dealer Solutions
    Date
    October 23, 2023

    Every year dealerships perform parts physical inventories and attempt to reconcile the parts pad to accounting. While the physical is pretty straight forward, most dealerships run into difficulties when trying to reconcile the parts pad to the general ledger. If everything throughout the year flows properly between parts and accounting, the variance to accounting should be zero but that never happens. In many cases dealerships can be off by $20,000 or more in either direction with no explanation.

    The FTC compliance deadline has come and gone and Dealers are still lacking comprehensive security programs. Compliance with the FTC Safeguard Rule isn’t just checking boxes. A security program requires businesses to adapt their cybersecurity practices to changing business environments, the evolving tactics of the cybercriminal, and technological advances. This ongoing effort is critical to defend against relentless cybercriminals and protect business continuity.

    In this presentation, Erik Nachbahr will discuss the practical measures dealerships can take to develop and maintain an Adaptive IT and Cybersecurity program.
