Each item to be counted needs a tag showing the item’s site, location, and item number. Then record count information on the tag. In the event of a recount, recount information goes on the same tag.

There are two types of count tags: item and bulk. Use Item Tag Create (3.16.1) to create tags for selected items. You can select items by item number, site, product line, or ABC class. Enter no selection criteria to create tags for all items in your system.

Use Bulk Tag Create (3.16.2) to create bulk tags. Bulk tags are the same as item tags, except that the item information on bulk tags is blank. Use bulk tags to count items that do not have item tags.

After creating count tags, use Tag Print (3.16.6) to print both types of tags. You can print tags on most standard-size forms. Default forms are set to print on 3 x 5 inch card stock. You can optionally print the tag number in bar code format if your system is formatted to do so.

In the event of errors, delete incorrect tags using Tag Delete/Archive (3.16.23), then recreate and print new ones.
