Tata Cliq Marketplace Reconciliation with ERP

Tata Cliq sellers often need to compare marketplace reports with internal ERP or OMS data to track sales, settlements, deductions, refunds, and missing entries. Manual spreadsheet reconciliation can become slow and difficult to audit as order volumes grow.

Cointab provides a structured reconciliation workflow for Tata Cliq marketplace reconciliation. Finance teams can compare internal records on one side with Tata Cliq reports on the other side, review discrepancies, and download audit-ready output for internal review and follow-up.

How Tata Cliq reconciliation works

In Cointab, the reconciliation is built around a simple Side A / Side B model:

• Side A: your internal records from ERP, OMS, sales reports, or ledger exports
• Side B: Tata Cliq marketplace reports such as sales, settlement, payment, refund, or GST-related files

The same setup can be reused for each period, so teams do not need to rebuild the workflow every month.

Typical Tata Cliq reconciliation workflow

A Tata Cliq reconciliation usually follows these steps:

1. Upload or receive the required ERP or OMS file on Side A.
2. Upload the relevant Tata Cliq report files on Side B.
3. Map key fields such as date, amount, order ID, transaction reference, or settlement ID.
4. Add supporting data if a lookup, merge, or calculation is needed.
5. Create derived columns when a cleaned identifier or calculated amount is required.
6. Run reconciliation manually or on a schedule.
7. Review matched, partially matched, unmatched, and skipped records.
8. Download the Excel reconciliation report for review and audit support.

What can be reconciled for Tata Cliq sellers

Cointab supports flexible marketplace reconciliation use cases, including:

• Tata Cliq sales vs ERP sales records
• Tata Cliq settlement vs OMS working
• Tata Cliq payment reports vs internal receivable records
• Tata Cliq deductions, fees, and refunds vs books data
• Tata Cliq reports vs bank or ledger entries where needed

This makes the workflow useful for finance teams that need to compare orders, payouts, deductions, and settlement differences in one place.

Matching logic for marketplace and ERP data

Marketplace reconciliation rarely depends on a single simple match. A Tata Cliq order may need to be matched using one or more identifiers, such as:

• order ID
• transaction ID
• settlement ID
• invoice number
• payment reference
• SKU or internal reference code

Cointab's reconciliation engine supports structured matching across different scenarios, including:

• one-to-one matching
• one-to-many matching
• many-to-one matching
• many-to-many matching
• net-to-net matching
• partial matching
• contra matching

This is useful when one Tata Cliq report row maps to multiple ERP rows, or when internal systems break a transaction into separate entries.

Handling differences in Tata Cliq reconciliation

After structured matching, Cointab clearly separates exceptions so finance teams can focus on what needs review.

Fully matched

These are transactions where identifiers and amounts align according to the configured logic. They confirm that the internal record and marketplace record are in sync.

Partially matched

These are records where the transaction appears related, but the amounts differ. This can happen because of deductions, returns, fees, taxes, rounding, or settlement adjustments.

Unmatched

These are records present on one side but not found on the other. For Tata Cliq reconciliation, this may point to missing settlements, missing sales entries, late reports, or internal posting gaps.

Skipped

Skipped rows are not included in reconciliation because they are incomplete, invalid, duplicate, or excluded by rule. Keeping them visible helps teams understand what was ignored and why.

Using supporting data and derived columns

Tata Cliq reconciliation often needs additional data to prepare the primary reports before matching. Cointab supports optional supporting files such as product masters, fee mappings, order metadata, or tax mapping files.

Users can also create derived columns when a field needs to be cleaned, combined, or calculated before reconciliation. For example, a team may need to:

• normalize an order ID format
• calculate net settlement amount
• convert a refund into a negative value
• extract a clean reference from mixed text
• build a matching key from multiple columns

AI can help create Excel-style formulas for these derived columns, which is useful for finance users who know the business rule but do not want to write the formula manually.

Reusable setup for recurring Tata Cliq runs

A major advantage of Cointab is reuse. Once the Tata Cliq workflow is mapped and validated, the same reconciliation can be used again for future periods.

That means finance teams can:

• select the saved reconciliation
• choose the period
• upload or receive the files
• run reconciliation
• review the report

This reduces repetitive setup work and helps standardize how Tata Cliq reconciliation is handled across months or reporting cycles.

Automation options for finance teams

For recurring marketplace operations, Cointab can automate parts of the workflow using email, SFTP, or API-based data flow. That makes it possible to reduce manual upload work and run reconciliations more consistently.

Automation can support:

• scheduled data input
• scheduled reconciliation runs
• output delivery to internal systems
• recurring report refreshes when late files arrive

If a required file is missed, users can upload the missing file under the same reconciliation and refresh the report.

Review and reporting

Once reconciliation is complete, users can review the report dashboard and filter transactions by status, period, or reconciliation name. The output helps teams understand:

• what matched
• what was only partially matched
• what remains open
• what was skipped
• what needs manual review

The reconciliation report can be downloaded in Excel format for internal follow-up, month-end close, and audit preparation.

Why this matters for Tata Cliq sellers

Marketplace reconciliation is not only about comparing two files. It is about maintaining control over sales recognition, settlement tracking, deductions, refunds, and unexplained differences.

For Tata Cliq sellers, a structured reconciliation workflow helps finance teams:

• reduce spreadsheet dependency
• standardize reconciliation logic
• identify exceptions faster
• keep reports audit-friendly
• reuse the same setup across periods
• support cleaner month-end close and reporting

Common Tata Cliq reconciliation scenarios

Finance and marketplace teams commonly use this workflow for:

• sales vs settlement review
• ERP vs marketplace reconciliation
• payout and deduction analysis
• refund and return validation
• open-item investigation
• monthly close support for marketplace income

Cointab is designed to make this process transparent, reusable, and easier to manage across recurring Tata Cliq reporting cycles.
