Performing an assisted cycle count by lot, location, and license plate

  1. From the Cycle Count menu, select Lot, Loc, LPN. The Lot, Loc, LPN (CCLLI1C) screen is displayed.
    Note: If the Labor Module within the SCE application is enabled and you did not select to start work, a message indicating that you need to start work before continuing is displayed. See the Infor WMS Productivity and Labor User Guide for information on starting and stopping work.
  2. Specify this information:
    Loc
    Location being counted.
    Ownr
    Product owner.
    Item
    Item code.
    LPN
    License plate being counted.
    Lot
    Lot number of product being counted.
    Note:  The F2 key can be used to find the appropriate Lot number for the current inventory.
    Qty
    Count quantity.
    Uom
    Defaults to EA (Each). You can change the unit of measure if the quantity entered is in a different UOM format. For example, you can record the count in cases instead of eaches.
    Pack
    Defaults to STD. You can change the default to record the quantity count and unit of measure using a different pack code.
  3. To confirm a location is empty, press F4.
  4. To generate new inventory currently not in the system, press F3. When prompted, enter Location and LPN of the inventory to be added. The system then checks whether or not the entered LPN already exists in another warehouse location.
    If LPN only exists in one location, the system then validates whether the inventory is in Allocated status, HOLD, or neither.
    • Allocated

      If the location is Allocated, this message is displayed:

      Inventory already exists in location XXX. 
      This inventory is allocated therefore it cannot be 
      added or moved.

      A cycle count record is then created and displayed in the Cycle Count Maintenance screen for the counted inventory.

      • The Cycle Count Header and Cycle Cont Detail will be (4) Location Mismatch.
      • Cycle Count Detail Notes field displays:
        Inventory already exists in location XXX. 
        This inventory is allocated therefore it cannot be 
        added or moved.
    • HOLD

      If the location is on HOLD, this message is displayed:

      Inventory already exists in location XXX. 
      Location XXX is on HOLD therefore inventory cannot be 
      added or moved.
      • The Cycle Count Header and Cycle Cont Detail will be (4) Location Mismatch.
      • Cycle Count Detail Notes field displays:
        Inventory already exists in location XXX. 
        Location XXX is on HOLD therefore inventory cannot be 
        added or moved.
    • Not Allocated and Not HOLD

      If inventory is neither on Hold or Allocated, this message is displayed:

       Inventory exists in location XXX. System is moving 
      inventory to correct location.
    If LPN exists in multiple locations, this message is displayed:
    This LPN is in multiple locations. See your supervisor.
    If the LPN does not exist:
    • A receipt screen displays so new inventory can be entered.
    • This screen will bypass the Receipt Validation for RF Receiving - Item not on ASN.
    • The system checks the lottable validation assigned to the item. Appropriate fields display, including catch weight/data and serial numbers, for capturing inventory.
  5. To submit the count to the application, press Enter. The application determines the result of the count according to cycle class variances assigned to the item. If no cycle class is assigned, class variances do not go into effect.

    One of the following three messages displays, depending on the result of the count you entered:

    • If the count does not match the application quantity but is within variance, the Count Discrepancy message is displayed.
    • If the count does not match the application quantity and is under the variance set for the item, the Count Discrepancy, Under Count Variance message is displayed.
    • If the count does not match the application quantity and is over the variance set for the item, the Count Discrepancy, over Count Variance message is displayed.
    Note:  This message displays when the quantity counted is greater than the system quantity, and outside tolerance range for the item’s cycle class.
  6. To exit the message, press Esc. The Cycle Count (CCLLI2) screen is displayed, allowing you to re-enter the count or finish the current count.

    If the SCE Labor module is enabled, the standard time for the task is displayed on the screen.

  7. Perform one of the following:
    • To submit a different count, update the Qty field and press Enter to repeat.
    • To complete the current count, press Esc. Adjustments are made in the system depending on tolerance settings and the quantity variance counted.

    If the SCE Labor module is enabled, the task performance information is displayed.
