Confirming a Cycle Count
You can confirm cycle count transactions using movement confirmation programs (4.8) or RDT.
With the movement confirmation programs, cycle count transactions are created with an expected quantity of zero so that the Expected In and Out inventory quantities are not automatically updated. If cycle count transactions are confirmed without first modifying them, they are confirmed as zero counts. That is, if each transaction is not manually modified to reflect the counted quantity, the on-hand quantity of each piece of counted inventory is set to zero.
Location Audit
From the RF, you can select Location Audit (1.4) to start a cycle count or a recount of a bin location. You can use functions in Location Audit to:
• Count the contents of a bin or pallet.
• View the stock you want to recount.
• Recount items that are not in the system yet.
After you select the Location Audit function, scan the location. The RF displays all pallets in the location. Select the pallet you want to audit. The RF displays item numbers and current quantities. Select the item you want recounted. If there are no pallets, the RF skips pallets and displays the items only. Once you select the item, the system creates a cycle count or a recount task.
Confirming a Cycle Count with an RF
RF screens identified with a system procedure code of AJ are supplied for confirming cycle counts. It is important that the tasks used to identify cycle counts and recounts are defined with a procedure code of AJ. Other tasks must not be defined with this procedure code; otherwise, for example, sales order picks would be processed as if they were cycle counts.
