There is contradictory information in the help files for the Physical Cycle. In one place Defining Cycle ID's it clearly states for the number of cycles to be entered. in Physical Cycles it states NOTHING about entering the count frequency and that column is not even on the screen.
Has something changed from a previous version and help was not updated?
Defining Cycle IDs
Use cycle IDs to group inventory items or locations that you want to cycle count together. Several cycle count selection methods use cycle IDs to ensure that all items/locations will be counted sometime during the year.
To define cycle IDs:
1. Open Physical Cycles (10.393.00) and enter an ID in Cycle ID.
2. Type a description of the ID in Description.
3. Enter the count frequency per year and accuracy tolerance.
4. Click Save on the toolbar.
5. Repeat this procedure for your other cycle IDs.
Physical Cycles (10.393.00)
Use Physical Cycles (10.393.00) to maintain a list of physical inventory cycle IDs. Cycle IDs are used for the following cycle counting methods:
-
Cycle Count ID — User Selected
-
Cycle Count ID — Random Selection
Cycle IDs can be used to group inventory items or locations for cycle counting. For example, if your inventory items are normally counted once each year but a group of items should be counted each week, items could be grouped into 52 count groups, each with an individual cycle ID assigned (01 through 52). Each week a group of items could be counted by selecting the appropriate cycle ID. Over the course of a year, all items would be counted once.
