Viewing Audits
Audits track information such as number of cycles vended, number of coins inserted, and the total amount of revenue received. Audit data can later be used to generate reports.
Two types of audits are recorded for each machine:
Interval – Interval audits track cycle and vend history from the time of the last audit. This information is cleared from the machine every time audit data is collected.
Cumulative – Cumulative audits track cycle and vend history over the life of the machine. This data is never cleared from the machine unless a re- initialization is done or a control board is replaced.
