Introduction- In cycle counting inventory, you enter your material stocks physically at regular intervals within a fiscal year. 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 make an inventory fast-moving materials in your warehouse more often than slow-moving material.

Cycle counting is basically the process of continually validation the accuracy of the inventory in the warehouse by regularly counting a portion of the inventory on a daily or weekly basis. Every item in the warehouse is counted at lease several times in a year.

Cycle Counting can be performed at IM level as well as WM Level.

In WM  We can go for two types of Cycle Counting Physical Inventory

1- Cycle Counting at Bin Level

2- Cycle Counting at Quant Level 

In this blog I am going to write about Cycle Counting at Bin Level

Check LX03

One pallet quantity was 0 so it disappeared

Other pallet quantity 1 and it was increased by 1 quantity so it is changed

After the entire physical inventory is complete for the fiscal year, you reset the inventory data for storage bins and storage quants using the RLREOLPQ report. In the next inventory period, you can then perform a new physical inventory for these storage bins.

Note- You should not reset the quant data, since the reference to the inventory date is then lost, and the system proposes too many bins for your next cycle counting inventory.
