Cycle Counts are utilized by both the warehouse and the clients to reconcile system inventory quantities and physical inventory quantities. The frequency and type of cycle counts depend on the client’s SOP.
The user directed cycle count function allows the operator to select a location to cycle count. The system directed cycle count function displays the location to cycle count.
Step 1: Validate location and product
The operator selects ‘Cycle Count Location’ and scans the location to cycle count
If an invalid location was scanned the, JASCI will display an error message
The operator will scan the product, if a valid location is scanned.
If an invalid product was scanned, JASCI will display an error message
If location is LPN controlled and/or the product has an inventory controls (lot controlled and/or serial controlled at the inventory level) proceed to Step 2.
If location is not LPN controlled and/or the product is not lot controlled and/or serial controlled (at the inventory level) proceed to Step 3.
Step 2: Validate LPN, serial number, and lot information
The operator will scan the LPN if the location is LPN-Controlled
If the LPN is not valid, JASCI will display an error message and return the operator to scan the LPN
If the product has any inventory controls (lot controlled or serial controlled at the inventory level) , JASCI will prompt the user to capture the values
The operator scans the serial (if product is serial controlled at the inventory level)
The operator scans the Lot (if product is lot controlled)
If the lot is not valid, the operator will either be prompted to
Scan a valid lot for the product in the location
JASCI can create a new lot number based on the entered value
