Store Physical Inventory 

Use

The store physical inventory provides support for physical inventory by taking account of specific store requirements. For example, the head office can send physical inventory documents to the store and the store can send count data to the head office.

Features

During inbound processing of count data from the store, the system carries out the following activities:

·        It prevents an external count document from being posted twice.

·        It determines the correct physical inventory document if an inbound intermediate document contains count items that do not have any reference to a physical inventory document item.

·        It groups several count items for the same article together in the one physical inventory document item.

·        If Inventory Management is on a value-only basis, it groups the count items for the individual articles together under the value-only article.

·        It enters the quantity counted and/or the sales value in the appropriate physical inventory document item.

·        It logs any errors that occur. These can then be displayed and processed using the POS interface monitor.

·        It triggers exception processing (work item) if a count item is reported for an article for which no active physical inventory item exists.
