NOTE: This is general information regarding cycle counts and will be re-reviewed after Go Live. Please refer to the individual sub-categories for additional details regarding each section.
There are cycle counts setup for the remaining work days in October. Once we convert to Live, the expectation is Cycle Counting will be performed on a daily basis. For Testing purposes, you can perform multiple days at once if desired.
Example: if you have time set aside on Wednesday to go thru this function, you can easily perform the Cycle Counts for Monday thru Wednesday (if you like).
VERY IMPORTANT: ONLY FINANCE WILL POST THE COUNTS UNTIL OTHERWISE NOTED. Once the Tag Count is entered along with Reason Codes are completed, please inform the RBU Controller; who will in turn review and Post the Count. Once posted the system will be ready for the next day’s Cycle Count.
Each Cycle Count has about 3 to 6 Part numbers to count.
- Pull up the Cycle
- Generate Tags
- Print the tags
- Next, Start Count Sequence (freezes / snapshots the current inventory).
Once the Parts are counted and the quantities are written down on the “Tags” / Count Sheets, then go into Count Entry and record your counts by Bin.
NOTE: Currentlly we will have larger variances because the Test environment is not capturing what is happening on the production floor.
Next go into Count Discrepancy Reason Code Entry to record the applicable reason for larger variances.
