To perform a physical cycle count in the RF system:You can use the RF Warehouse Management system to perform a full physical inventory when you are first setting up your warehouse for RF Warehouse Management, or at other times when you want to perform a full physical inventory.
Use the RF Count Entry screen along with the Eclipse Generate Count Control File screen to run a physical cycle count in the RF system.
The RF Count Entry screen does not work with Warehouse Operation Queuing as do the other RF Cycle Count screens. Instead, a count must manually be generated on the Eclipse Generate Count Control File screen and then called on the RF Count Entry screen.
Note: You cannot use the RF Count Entry screen to scan non-dynamic kits. If you scan a non-dynamic kit, the system prompts you that you scanned an invalid kit and makes you re-scan each individual component of the non-dynamic kit. You can scan dynamic kits.
Note: The system captures the user ID of each user performing the physical count. View this information on the Product Activity Log Viewing screen.
