Use Query By Example to Search Item Categories When Defining a Cycle Count

Defining your cycle counts using item categories helps you assign goods to counts based on a specific or common attribute. When following this approach, you specify the counts per year and positive or negative variance percentages for each category you include in the count in the Define Items in Item Categories step of the cycle count definition. If you include a large number of categories in your cycle count, it can be difficult to find the exact category you want to edit during this step. Now you can use query by example functionality to search your category names before defining or editing the counts per year and positive or negative variance percentages in the Define Items in Item Categories step of the cycle count definition.
