    To create counting journal you should use following option

    Inventory management > Journals > Item counting > Counting

    You can create journal header and lines using this option and then post as usual for any inventory journal is posted

    For Counting Journal you have options to create lines automatically, based on

    On-Hand

    Items

    and Expired Batch job

    these above process basically create journal lines with On-Hand Quantity

    Once line are created it is required to enter the counted quantity (this is manual process which user does by counting items physically in warehouse

    once counted quantity is entered, system calculates the Quantity to be posted (which is Counted - Onhand)

    based on the on the sign of the Quantity column, while posting system creates Profit or loss journal

    Please verify and update us with your findings and let us know if you need more information

    OK,

    Createting Counting journal using X++ will be something like creating invntory journal only

    but you need to utilize the create journal line standard function which we have on the lines form

    as discussed earlier there is one manual process to enter counting quality for each line based on physical counting

    you need to find out how you will get that value

    Once journal is created you can post the journal using X++ as you post any other Inventory journal using code

    Please verify and let me know if this much information helps you.
