Performing a random item count with the RF

Random item counts are similar to a cycle count, but are performed on demand when a quantity is questioned. This procedure can be used to perform a four-wall count of a specific product. Discrepancies for random counts are handled by the selection of the Adjust On Count option in TWL Execution-Cycle Count-Setup.

  1. From the RF Main Menu, select Inventory Control.
  2. Select Random Item Count.
  3. Scan the product. The locations in which the product is stored are displayed in the Item Information section.

    If the label contains a cross-reference number, use the arrow keys to access the By field. Specify U, then scan the cross-reference. Your product number is displayed.

  4. Press Enter. The cursor is displayed in the Location field. Scan the location and specify the quantity.

    If the quantity does not equal the expected quantity, then for the message: Quantities didn’t agree. Please count again, press Enter.

    If you entered the expected quantity, or two consecutive equal quantities, then for the message: Do you want to count this item in rest of the locations?, click Yes to continue counting the product in other locations.

  5. Repeat steps as necessary to count the product in other locations, or if you are finished with the random item count, press Enter.
