Abstract: A method is provided comprising a first computer uploading a file to a database wherein the file identifies devices associated with an order and serial numbers associated with the devices. The method also comprises a second computer comparing the range of serial numbers in the file to a range of serial numbers identified by the order. When the ranges identified by the file and the order do not correlate, the second computer transmits a message to the first computer indicating the ranges do not correlate. When the ranges identified by the file and the order do correlate, the second computer transmits a message to the first computer indicating the ranges correlate. Based on the first computer receiving the message indicating that the range of serial numbers identified by the file correlates to the range of serial numbers identified by the order, the first computer ships the devices.

Abstract: A system of inventory variance detection modeling is described. The system comprises a server computer, a processor, a memory, and an application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, receives a report associating electronic serial numbers of devices with a plurality of instances of inventory shrinkage. The system also assembles a list of electronic serial numbers of devices associated with instances of a first type of inventory shrinkage. The system also receives a report of the processing history of the devices associated with the electronic serial numbers contained in the list in a plurality of non-logistics and non-warehousing systems. The system also determines the statistical correlation of electronic serial numbers contained in the list with each of a plurality of exceptions processed by at least one of the non-logistics and non-warehousing systems.
