The Cycle Count feature in the Inventory App allows businesses to maintain accurate stock records without performing full physical inventory counts. Instead of shutting down operations for an annual or quarterly count, cycle counts enable you to verify inventory in smaller, manageable portions at regular intervals.


Why Use Cycle Counts?

  • Improved Accuracy – Regular checks help identify discrepancies early.

  • Reduced Disruption – No need for complete shutdown during stock verification.

  • Better Control – Helps monitor high-value or fast-moving items more closely.

  • Compliance – Provides audit trails for inventory adjustments.


Key Features

  • Track and record physical counts of selected products.

  • Compare system stock vs. physical stock.

  • Generate adjustment entries automatically if discrepancies are found.

  • Attach supporting documents (upload/capture options).

  • Maintain cycle count history for audit and reporting.


When to Use Cycle Counts?

  • For warehouses with large stock volumes.

  • To monitor frequently sold or critical products.

  • To reduce risk of shrinkage, theft, or data errors.

  • As part of monthly or quarterly stock verification practices.
