Cycle Count Task Creation

In addition to manually Cycle Counting locations, you can also create Cycle Count Tasks and execute them later. There are two ways to create CC Tasks:

Through user-configured Triggers.
Through user-executed Task Template

Cycle Count Trigger Management

Oracle WMS Cloud contains a list of possible triggers for cycle counts that you can choose to enable. When enabled, the system automatically generates Cycle Count Tasks for its location.

The Cycle CountTrigger Management screen contains the following parameters:

Facility/Company: Defines which Facility and Company this trigger applies to (an asterisk * means it applies to all facilities/companies – must be at PARENT company level).
CC Trigger: A description of the trigger. This is the action that will trigger the CC Task.
Enabled: “Yes” means the trigger is enabled.
Priority: The priority given to the Task when created.
Task Type:
- CC Location LPN Scan: Creates a Cycle Count Task that prompts you to scan the LPNs in the location.

See Cycle Count Execution (RF) for details.

CC Location Content: Creates a Cycle Count Task that prompts you to scan the LPNs, SKUs and quantities in the location.

See section Cycle Count Execution (RF) for details.

Description of Cycle Count Triggers


Trigger	Definition/Expected behavior
Alternate location for Putaway	- You scan a location different than the one directed by the system during directed putaway: - System generates a CC task for the location directed by the system. - Trigger module: ‘rf.inbound.cwrfputaway’ with mode = ‘Directed Putaway Pallet’ or ‘Directed Putaway LPN’.
Short pick	- You short pick an LPN or units from an LPN: - System generates a CC task for the location where the LPN was shorted. - Trigger modules are: ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpacklpn’,‘rf.inbound.cwrfmovelpn’, ‘rf.inbound.cwrfpickiblpnreplen’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpickcart’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpackncactiveorder’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpickiblpn’
Short pick active	- You short pick the remaining quantity of a SKU in an active location: - System generates a CC task for the location where the quantity was shorted. - Trigger modules are: ‘rf.inbound.cwrfpickiblpnreplen’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpickcart’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpackncactiveorder’, ‘‘rf.outbound.cwrfpickiblpn’
Cancel OBLPN in ‘OB Created’ status	- You cancel an OBLPN in ‘Outbound Created’ status from the UI: - System generates a CC task for the location(s) where the inventory in this OBLPN was allocated from. - Trigger module: ‘ObContainerView’ - Note that this trigger should only work when an OBLPN in ‘Outbound Created’ status is cancelled manually from the UI. If an OBLPN in ‘Outbound created’ status is cancelled by ‘Undo Wave’, the system should not create corresponding CC tasks even if this trigger is enabled.
De-allocate IBLPN from UI	- You de-allocate an IBLPN from UI: - System generates a CC task for the location where the IBLPN was de-allocated. - Trigger module: ‘IbContainerView’
De-allocate Active Inventory from UI	- You de-allocate a SKU from active inventory in the UI. - System generates a CC task for the location where the SKU was de-allocated. -Trigger module: ‘ActiveInventoryView’
Set Location ‘To be counted’ from Location screen	- You set the “To be counted” flag equal to ‘Yes’ in the UI. - System generates a CC task for the location where the flag was set to ‘Yes’. -Trigger module: ‘LocationViewFW’
Recount Location	- You reject an inventory adjustment record with ‘Loc Dtl Count’ = No and with ‘Creation Type’ = Manual (Recount triggers are only applicable for Cycle Counts done manually). - System generates a CC task for the location with rejected inventory adjustment record. -Trigger module: ‘Inventory Adjustment Management’
Recount Location Detail	- You reject an inventory adjustment record with ‘Loc Dtl Count’ = Yes and with ‘Creation Type’ = ‘Manual’ (Recount triggers are only applicable for Cycle Counts done manually). - System generates a CC task for the location with rejected inventory adjustment record. - Trigger module: ‘Inventory Adjustment Management’
Approve ‘Location Mismatch’ record	- You approve an inventory adjustment record that moves an LPN from another location to the cycle counted location (inventory adjustment record has warning ‘Location Mismatch’). - System generates a CC task for the location where the LPN was located BEFORE the cycle count adjustment (LPN’s ‘Expected Location’). Ex. If LPN was systematically in location A. However, during the cycle count that generated the inventory adjustment record, same LPN was counted in location B. Upon approval of this record, the CC task must be generated for location A. -Trigger module: ‘Inventory Adjustment Management’
Substitute LPN from different location	- You scan an LPN that is in a location different from the allocated LPN during Full-LPN or Reserve NC Picking (LPN substitution from different location). - System generates a CC task for the location where the LPN was allocatedoriginally. - Trigger modules are: ‘rf.inbound.cwrfmovelpn’, ‘rf.inbound.cwrfpickiblpnreplen’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpickcart’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpackncactiveorder’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfpickiblpn’, ‘rf.outbound.cwrfrepackoblpn’
Alternate location for Split LPN into active	- You scan a location different than the one directed by the system during RF_Directed putaway with parameter ‘multi-sku-lpn-mode’ = ‘Split into active locations’. - System generates a CC task for the location directed by the system - Trigger module: ‘rf.inbound.cwrfputaway’ with mode = ‘Directed Putaway Pallet’ or ‘Directed Putaway LPN’ AND ‘multi-sku-lpn-mode’ = ‘Split into active locations’.

Configuring Cycle Count Triggers

Go to the Trigger Management screen - this displays a list of Cycle Count Triggers.
Select the record and click Edit () to customize the trigger.
1. Tick the “Enabled” checkbox to enable/disable the trigger.
2. Set a number for the priority. This is the priority of the Task generated from the trigger.
3. Select the Task Type. This defines the task type for the task created under this trigger (CC Location LPN Scan or CC Location Detali Count).
Click "Save" to save the changes.
