Description
As an alternative to the Planned Inventory Counting, Mobile WMS also supports unplanned counting.
This allows the mobile user to count a single item/bin without planning it in Business Central first.
Unplanned Count
- This feature is started by selecting "Unplanned Count" from the main menu
- Select the location you are in
Note: The locations available to the user, correspond to the locations the user has been set up to use on the warehouse employee page in Business Central.
The default location is the first entry in the list. - Scan or enter the item number you want to count
Alternatively, you can search for the item using the online search feature
- Scan or enter the bin code the item is placed in
- Enter the counted quantity
- Post the registration
The quantity in Business Central has now been updated
Note:
- The update depends on the specific configuration of the Location.
- "Directed Put-away & Pick"-locations can track items in different Units. Be aware to select the correct Unit to Count, otherwise you will register Quantity in an additional Unit
Item Tracking support
- Unplanned Count can only be performed while the mobile device is online
- Serial tracked items are not supported with Unplanned Count
- Lot tracked items are only supported when the "Item Tracking Code" has "Warehouse Tracking" enabled
- Tracked Items are not supported since these should be identified during Receipt
- Counting tracked items will make it impossible to decide whether to collect Expiration Date, since this is not needed for known items but needed for unknown
