Type ID

The unique identifier of the type of the physical inventory counts.

Description

A description of the type.

Generation Method

The method to be used to generate counting lists for the type. Select one of the following options:

Full Physical Inventory: To include all the items available at the specified warehouse or locations.
By Inventory: To count only particular inventory items, which you specify on the Inventory Item Selection tab.
By Movement Class: To include only the items for which counting is due based on the counting frequency associated with their movement classes. If you select this generation method, choose the movement class on the Movement Class Selection tab. The count frequency of a movement class is the number of counts per year required for its items, as set on the Movement Classes (IN208600) form.

This option appears only if the Advanced Physical Counts feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.

By ABC Code: To include only the items associated with the specific code or items for which counting is due based on the counting frequency associated with items’ ABC codes. You can select the code using the appropriate tab. The count frequency is determined by the counts per year value, as set on the ABC Codes (IN208500) form.

This option appears only if the Advanced Physical Counts feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.

By Cycle: To include only the items for which counting is due based on the assigned PI cycles. You can select the cycle by using the appropriate tab.

This option appears only if the Advanced Physical Counts feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.

By Item Class: To include only items belonging to the specific class. You can select the class by using the appropriate tab.

Include Items with Zero Book Quantity in PI

A check box that indicates (if selected) that the system must include items with a zero book quantity in a PI document for a physical inventory of the selected type. When this check box is selected, location-item pairs (from the generation method) in which items have a book quantity of zero (except lot-tracked or serial-tracked items) are added to a PI document on the Physical Inventory Review (IN305000) form if the items have been stored in the locations for the past year. For physical inventory types with the By Inventory generation method and the Last Count On or Before selection method, the date of the last physical inventory count is also checked. If the date is more than one year ago and there were item movements in a warehouse location since the last physical inventory, the location is included in the current physical inventory count.
This check box is available for all types of physical inventory except types with the Full Physical Inventory generation method and types with the By Inventory generation method and the Items Having Negative Book Qty. selection method.
By default, the check box is cleared.

Unfreeze Stock When Counting Is Finished

A check box that indicates (if selected) that inventory items included in a physical inventory of this type become available for warehouse operations after the counting is finished (that is, when the physical inventory document has the Data Entering or In Review status on the Physical Inventory Review (IN305000) form).

Unfreezing stock items before releasing an adjustment may cause discrepancies in the quantity or cost of stock items.
