Updating Inventory Balances
When all tags are accounted for and count results are satisfactory, use Inventory Balance Update (3.16.21) to update quantity-on-hand balances. The system changes each item’s quantity on hand to the difference between the frozen quantity on hand and the count quantity.
Example: The frozen quantity of Item Z is 100. The count quantity (50 issued, 47 counted) is 97. The update quantity is –3. The updated quantity on hand for Item Z is 97.
