Cycle Counts

Introduction

Having an accurate inventory of parts linked to assets will help provide better expense reporting.  ManagerPlus allows you to update your inventory quantities and costs.  This article will walk you through how to complete a manual cycle count. 

 This article applies to + Professional and + Enterprise.

Instructions

1.  Select the Modules tab, then select the Cycle Counts icon in the main menu.

2.  Click on the New icon, complete the necessary fields, click on the Save icon to save you Cycle Count. 

3.  Click on the Add Parts icon and select all part or just the ones you want to count, then click Add to Pick List.  When all parts are in your Pick List click OK.

 Use the filter in the Pick List to narrow your search. You can narrow your search by bin, parts that have been used, or other criteria. This is especially useful if you have a large volume of parts.

4.  Fill in the Quantity Counted grid with your current quantity, then click on the Post Counted icon. If the quantity you entered doesn't match what ManagerPlus has on record, you will need to enter the quantity and cost again and then click on the Post Counted icon. This process will need to repeat until there are at least 2 entries that match.

 Counted by will auto-populate the user that clicks on Post Counted. 

5.  When finished click on the Close Cycle Count icon and you are finished.
