Discrepancies in an Inventory Count

Discrepancies in an inventory count only apply if tolerances are set in the inventory count, which are then copied to the count header when the count is generated.

The inventory count/count header defines what action is to be taken if an inventory count produces discrepancies between the expected quantity and the quantity counted. For example, it can contain acceptable value or quantity tolerances to be applied before an action is required. Therefore, if these tolerances are defined they are applied automatically.

If the difference between the counted quantity and the expected quantity is outside of any tolerances defined, the line status is marked as a discrepancy. The count line then requires manual approval by an operator with the required permissions. These permissions are set in Forms Permissions Editor or Forms Designer.

From the Action menu within the Inventory Count Entry form select Approve to carry out the approval. The line can then be posted.

Uwaga: If approval is required, that is, there is a discrepancy which is outside of the tolerance allowed, and the user has sufficient operator permissions to post the count, then approval is carried out automatically when the line is posted.
