Generate Cycle Count Sheets
Overview of IV340
The purpose of the Cycle Count Sheet Generation program is to generate and print cycle count sheets, and display previous sheets. Warehouse personnel use cycle count sheets to physically count the inventory on the shelves. The sheets contain the part numbers of the items to be counted and their locations in the warehouse. If several people are counting inventory, the program divides the task among them, and sheets are printed for each one. The list of items to be counted is determined by cycle count categories. Cycle count categories define counting cycles and counting dates attached to the inventory items. When a cycle count category is selected, the list of inventory items associated with it displays. Previous counting sheets can also be displayed and reviewed. Thus the user can see a history of previous counts.
