Do you reconcile for VFC and State at the same time? Yes, reconciliation considers all vaccine inventory entered in SIMON. The system will separate the stocks by Fund Type (VFC or STATE). Also, if you click on Links on the Vaccine Inventory Reconciliation Page, you can print out the Count Sheet to complete your physical count of the vaccine inventory. The Count Sheet also separates the vaccine stock by Fund Type.
