The Cycle Counting Engine completes the following steps:
- Identifies the cycle count basis (ABC or XYZ) for the specified inventory location or location type.
- For any remaining product category to process, calculates the number of products to count today. If there is no remaining product category to process, then prints a part list.
- If there are any remaining uncounted products in the product category, then selects a product that is not counted in the counting period.
- Adds the selected product to the part list (or cycle counting order) and flags the product as counted.
- If the products to count today are selected, then returns to Step 2. If the products to count today are not selected yet, then returns to Step 3.
