Wireless Warehouse - Product Recount

Wireless Warehouse product recount tasks are performed with a handheld device. When you perform a product recount task, the handheld appears, as follows:

Purpose

Repeat a cycle count for a single product.

Overview

Use the product recount task to recount a specific product if a cycle count had an unacceptable variance. This task is created in Wireless Cycle Count Variance Management or can be created automatically based on options set up in Zone Task Options. You can enter the count information by scanning, or by manually typing it. For more information, see Wireless Warehouse Cycle Count Process Flow.

Performing the Task

To perform a product recount task:

At the Wireless Warehouse Handheld Menu, enter Get Next Task. The bin displays at the top of the handheld screen to direct you to go to a specific bin.
If the bin you are counting is not automatically entered in the Bin field, scan the bin, or enter it in the field. The product code for the product you are counting displays at the top of the handheld screen.
Scan the product, or enter the product code, UPC, or GTIN in the SKU field. The product name for the product you are counting displays at the top of the handheld screen.

Note If the bin is empty, select Tools $Images\bluerarw.gif$ No Product, and skip to step 9.

If the unit of measure is not automatically entered, enter the unit of measure for the product in the U/M field.
If the product you scanned or entered in step 3 is tracked by lot or serial number, scan the lot or serial number, or enter it in the Lot/Ser field.
If you are not required to scan each unit of the product, enter the quantity received in the Qty field.
Repeat steps 2 to 6 until you have completely counted the product for the bin.
When you are finished counting, select Tools $Images\bluerarw.gif$ OK. The Cycle Count Summary screen appears, which allows you to compare the counted and expected quantities for each product.
To recount, select Tools $Images\bluerarw.gif$ Recount. To clear the entire count and return to the main menu, select Tools $Images\bluerarw.gif$ Clear Count.
When you are satisfied with the count, select Tools $Images\bluerarw.gif$ OK.
If the product is in another bin, the next bin displays at the top of the handheld screen to direct you to go to the next bin. You can then repeat steps 2 to 10 for the bin. If you have counted the product for all bins, you have completed the task and the main menu appears.
