EVE ONLINE ASSET RECONCILIATION FOR INDUSTRY STOCK
Tactical Chimps maintains a local costed industry ledger while authorised EVE Online ESI provides an external view of supported character assets. Reconciliation compares those two views so quantity changes can be identified without discarding the Tracker cost history.
Tracker Comparison
Compare ESI-observed quantities with locally tracked industry inventory.
Quantity Reconciliation
Identify differences between observed assets and known Tracker quantity movements.
Cost Ledger Preservation
Keep the local costed stock ledger separate from the external ESI quantity observation so inventory cost can continue to be tracked.
ESI // WORKFLOW
HOW ESI ASSET RECONCILIATION WORKS
The reconciliation workflow compares changes observed through ESI with changes already known to the Tactical Chimps Tracker.
01
Observe Assets
Authorised ESI data provides the current supported asset quantities visible to the Tracker.
02
Compare Changes
Changes in ESI-observed quantities are compared with quantity changes already recorded by the Tracker.
03
Calculate Residual
The reconciliation process identifies the portion of the ESI quantity change that is not already explained by known Tracker activity.
04
Reconcile Stock
The unexplained residual can then be applied or surfaced through the reconciliation workflow while preserving an audit trail.
ESI // BASELINE
THE FIRST OBSERVATION ESTABLISHES A BASELINE
On the first successful ESI asset observation, Tactical Chimps establishes a reference point for supported asset quantities. That initial observation does not automatically change Tracker stock.
Initial Snapshot
The first successful observation records the starting ESI asset state used for later comparisons.
No Initial Stock Mutation
Establishing the baseline does not itself change locally tracked stock quantities.
Later Comparison
Subsequent observations can be compared with the established ESI state to identify asset quantity changes.
Separate Cost History
The Tracker continues to maintain the local quantity and cost history used by the wider industry workflow.
RECONCILIATION // RESIDUAL
AVOID DOUBLE-COUNTING KNOWN TRACKER CHANGES
Tactical Chimps does not treat every observed ESI quantity difference as a completely new stock movement. ESI changes are compared with Tracker changes and the reconciliation process isolates the unexplained residual.
ESI Before & After
Reconciliation records can retain the observed ESI quantity before and after a detected change.
Tracker Delta
Known local Tracker movements provide context for changes that have already been accounted for.
Unexplained Residual
The difference remaining after known Tracker activity is considered represents the unexplained portion of the observed change.
Reconciliation History
Reconciliation events provide an audit trail explaining differences between ESI observations and locally tracked inventory.
TRACKER // ESI
ESI OBSERVATION AND COSTED STOCK SERVE DIFFERENT PURPOSES
ESI provides an external observation of supported assets. The Tactical Chimps Industry Tracker maintains the local stock and cost records used by production costing, inventory analysis and Market Intelligence.

EVE ESI ASSET TRACKER QUESTIONS
What is EVE Online ESI asset reconciliation?
It compares supported asset quantities returned through authorised EVE Online ESI with inventory quantities maintained by the Tactical Chimps Industry Tracker.
Does ESI replace the Tactical Chimps stock ledger?
No. ESI provides an external asset observation while the Tracker maintains its own inventory and cost records for the Tactical Chimps industry workflow.
What happens during the first ESI asset sync?
The first successful observation establishes an ESI baseline. Establishing that baseline does not automatically change Tracker stock.
How are later asset changes reconciled?
Changes observed through ESI are compared with known Tracker changes. The reconciliation process identifies the unexplained residual rather than automatically treating the entire ESI difference as a new local movement.
Can reconciliation events be audited?
Yes. Tactical Chimps maintains reconciliation information used to explain differences between ESI-observed assets and locally tracked inventory changes.
