After entering inventory counts into the system, you can subtract all tagged quantities from the on-hand amount by running the Fill Tag Entry program.
Important: Subtracting tagged quantities assumes you selected the Include All Location Types check box in the Generate Control File window to count items tagged to sales orders. If you did not select this check box, do not run the Fill Tag Entry for Physical On Hand program. |
If you keep tagged items in a separate staging area and not on the same shelf as regular stock, treat this area as a separate inventory count by doing the following:
Generate a separate count control file for the location.
Count the items.
Enter the counts into the system.
Run the Fill Tag Entry program for the count.
Check for variances before updating on-hand quantities.
Note: The Exclude Tagged Location Information On Physical Sheets control maintenance record determines whether your count sheets or cards indicate that tagged quantities exist at the location.
To run the Fill Tag Entry for Physical On Hand program:
From the Physical menu, select Fill Tag Entry for Physical On Hand to display the Fill Tag Entry for Physical On Hand window.
In the Count ID# field, enter the count control file ID of the inventory count for which to run the program.
The system populates the following fields:
Field | Description |
Title | Title assigned to the selected count control file. |
Branch | Branch in which the count occurred. |
Last Control # | Last control number assigned to product in the count control file. |
In the Ctrl#/PrcLine
field, select
the options for which to run the program:
Note: This option enables you to update portions of the physical inventory counts, instead of waiting for all counts to be verified.
In the Valid Tag Location Types to Fill field, select the location type from which to subtract tagged quantities. To enter multiple location types, separate each type with a comma (,).
From the File menu, select Begin to run the program and close the window.
