I apologize for the delay in writing. We have been extremely busy this week with our existing clients as well as several new clients. We are definitely glad to have plenty of work and that our business is not only growing but we’re maintaining the business relationships with our existing clients.
Today we are providing a simple step-by-step guide on doing a physical Inventory count with the CipherLab 8000-C Portable Data Collector.
You do not need to print spreadsheets containing your inventory prior to scanning. Here are the steps:
To start a physical inventory, click on the Inventory menu and start Physical Inventory.
Then find an item with a zero quantity and type zero into the counted field and press the Save and Continue button. This sets the start flag.
Load items into scanner.
Put scanner into the cradle after changing the scanner from scan to upload.
Go through the Upload Wizard.
Accept the scans. If you have bad scans, print the worksheet of unrecognized scans and try to find them manually.
Save and continue to save the Accepted Scans.
If any items counts (i.e. I have sold some) have changed, a flag will be set. Review all flagged items and correct as needed.
Once you are certain that everything has been counted, check the box “Set all items counted to zero”
then press the Apply Changes to Inventory.
Print the reports you need.
That’s it.
