Location Cycle Count
Saved counts update your system’s on-hand quantities right away.
Cycle counting updates your system to match what is actually on the shelf. LilyPad WMS has two ways to count:
- Count a part: count one part at one location, from the part’s page.
- Location cycle count: count everything in one location at once.
The Location cycle count module can be found under the Inventory group on the LilyPad home screen.
Location Cycle Count
- Open Location cycle count.
- Scan a bin label, or choose a location from the list. Every item there is listed with its expected quantity.
- Scan each item to count it. Each scan counts one. Users can also select Manual or use the + and – buttons to type the count in.
- Differences are flagged as users count. Serial-tracked items can be scanned one serial at a time.
- For a full count of the bin, turn on Count unscanned as 0. Anything not counted is set to zero.
- Select Submit changes. To clear the counts and begin again, select Start over.
The counts are saved, and on hand updates to match.
Counting a Part
To count a single part, open it from the Parts module and select Count. Choose or scan the location, enter the physical count, and save it. See the Parts page.
Scanning
- Scan a bin label to open that location.
- Scan each item to count it, one scan per unit.
- Scan serial numbers on serial-tracked items.
