Physical count process

This section describes how a physical count operates to improve the accuracy of inventory at a facility.

Performing a physical inventory count

The Infor WMS Warehouse Management physical feature has three phases:

  • First, two teams (Teams A and B) perform complete physical counts. Once the physical counts are completed, they are compared and differences are recorded. The two counts are then reconciled.
  • Second, compare the reconciled physical count to the application count. Record the differences and reconcile the two counts.
  • Third, post the final reconciled count to the application.
Note: 
  • When doing recounts, be sure they are performed by Team A; otherwise, any changes made are not posted.
  • The Physical Parameters option allows you to post a physical against a subset of the warehouse by owner, location, zone, or by area.
