# Revenue Comparison Report

The Revenue Comparison report is used to compare subscriber revenue (from revenue and grace-owed records) to the delivery cost (i.e., account credits) of the same period. In non-update mode, the report lists any discrepancies between the two. In update mode, it lists the discrepancies and also creates an adjusting GL batch with the journal code of “RevAdj”. A field in Publication Setup, Discrepancy GL Account, is used to identify the GL account to which adjusting entries are added.

Before running this report, be sure to run the Unearned Revenue and Grace Due reports in update mode. Then, run the Revenue Comparison report for the same time period.

#### To run the Revenue Comparison report:

* Select Revenue Comparison from the Management menu to display the Revenue Comparison Report window.<br>
