What action is taken after discrepancies are identified in the EOM process?

After discrepancies are identified in the End of Month (EOM) process, working with the Treasury Agent is the appropriate action to take. The Treasury Agent is responsible for overseeing financial operations and ensuring compliance with financial regulations and procedures. By collaborating with this individual, the ship's serviceman can confirm the discrepancies, understand their causes, and take the necessary corrective actions to resolve any financial issues. This collaboration ensures that all discrepancies are accurately documented and addressed in accordance with established protocols, maintaining financial integrity on board.

In contrast, notifying the ship's captain may not be necessary at this stage, as the captain typically relies on financial staff to handle discrepancies. Conducting a full inventory audit can be a more extensive process that may not be warranted right away, especially if quick resolution to the identified discrepancies is possible. Reviewing sales contracts is focused on contract terms and obligations, which might not directly address the financial discrepancies at hand. Therefore, working with the Treasury Agent aligns more directly with effective management of financial operations and resolving discrepancies efficiently.
