Approve Cycle Counting Variances (whinh5801m000)
Use this session to display or approve the cycle-count order lines that require approval.
You can only approve cycle-count order-lines for which the Approval field has the To Approve value.
If a recount is requested, a new cycle count order line is generated when the Recount Cycle Counting Orders (whinh5203m000) session is carried out. Order lines that are not approved are not processed in the Process Cycle Counting Orders (whinh5201m000) session.
A variance can always be approved. A recount is only possible if the current value of the Count Number field is less than the value of the Maximum Number of Recounts field. When this maximum number of recounts is reached, the order line must be approved.
Approval for a WMS-controlled warehouse
If the cycle counting order is of type Reconciliation, approval is always allowed. Otherwise, approval depends on the Order Approval Allowed in Infor LN setting in the WMS Interface Parameters (whwmd2105m000) session. Note that this parameter setting also affects the availabilty of the Recount Order lines command.
