Hello,

For customizing setting for your plant SPRO >> MM >> IM & PI >> PI >> Cycle Counting.

Here you can define A, B and C indicators for your plant ans also you can define no of phy inventory required for each indicator .

E.g. for indicator A , 12 number of physical invetory required.

you can use following t- codes

MIBC - set cycle count indicator

MICN - Create PI document

Hi

By dividing materials into various classes (for example, A, B, C, D, and so on), you specify for those materials at which intervals or cycles the inventory is to be performed. This allows you to inventory fast-moving materials in your warehouse more often than slow-moving materials.
