Cycle Count Information Displayed
While the Cycle Count mobile application does not function differently than base EnterpriseOne applications, it does offer the mobile user a subset of cycle count information. Not all cycle count information available in the base software is available in the mobile application.

Set processing options for the Cycle Count tablet application (M41240).
Setting processing options for the application is a task that should be completed by the system administrator before the mobile application are made available to end users.
-
Disable the Bluetooth option in your device's settings if you want to use the native device camera to scan barcodes of item number, location, and lot/serial number.
