Cycle count overview

You can use WM to perform the following types of inventory counts:

  • Cycle count

    A count in which locations are spot-checked to ensure that application balances and actual location quantities match. Cycle counts verify quantities in specific locations.

  • Physical Inventory count

    A physical inventory or a physical, a count in which the entire inventory of an owner is counted.

Note: A key feature of the WM system is the ability to modify RF screens to control and process flow throughout the operation. This includes changing text descriptions, field sequence, field display, and the data that must be captured. For this reason, some of information presented in this guide might not match your RF screen display. You might also see information discussed in this guide that is different than the screen capture displayed in the guide. For more information on modifying RF screens, see the Infor WMS Administrator's Guide.

Serial number tracking

You can track serial numbers from receipt through shipment in Infor Warehouse Management System. See the Infor WMS Capture Weight, Serial Number, and Data User Guide for information on how to perform cycle counts for items that require serialized tracking.
