How to perform and process a warehouse inventory count

This document describes how to perform and process a warehouse count

A warehouse count allows for a verification of the physically received/delivered goods by the supplier. It is then compared to the receiving document to check if the quantities on the receiving document match the actual delivered quantity of goods.

The warehouse count should be performed within RetailVista Mobile (make sure the required "Warehouse Count" application is activated). After starting RetailVista Mobile, you can start the "Warehouse Count" functionality, see below:

Next, you need to enter a document number and click on the search button:

Below, the document will be displayed.

Now you can start adding the products+quantities by scanning a product or tapping the "New line" button.

After scanning the product, the product information will be displayed and you can enter the counted quantity in the "Warehouse quantity" option.

It may also happen that for some reason products need to be returned to the supplier. In that case, you enter a quantity in the "Returned from" option, once you have entered the quantity, choose to save and you can optionally scan the next product that is in the document.

The input order of the products may be random.

After choosing to save, you will return to the warehouse counting overview and you can view the entered counts.

If you notice that there is a quantity in a line that is incorrect, you can still adjust it by selecting the line and then adjusting the quantity.

Once the warehouse count is processed, it needs to be processed in the back office.

You can do this in the following way, go to: Received products > Received product imports > Import scanner slip verifications and search for the document here.

Now the warehouse count needs to be linked to the receipt document.

Choose the option "Process warehouse counts" to process the warehouse count.

Now that the document has been processed, it is linked to the receipt document.

The example below shows how this is displayed:

If desired, a report can also be printed regarding any warehouse differences.
