Account comparison in Inventory valuation groups the account-side evidence used in the report. Select the account to inspect Inventory account entries through the chosen date. The detail shows the ledger balance and its difference from tracked stock.
Review the source lines and open the linked journal where current permissions allow. Identify whether each amount belongs to a tracked product movement, an opening entry or another posted adjustment. The ledger balance can include entries outside the stock register.
Use the same cutoff when comparing those entries with product movement detail. A reversal dated after the selected day should not be treated as if it already changed the earlier valuation. Preserve the original and reversing entries when reconstructing the sequence.
If the drilldown is empty, do not infer that no opening inventory ever existed. Review Coverage and source evidence and the selected account. Correct the source event only after establishing the cause of a difference, then refresh both views. The report itself is evidence for investigation, not an editor for forcing balances to match.
