IC73


IC73.1 - Count Detail

**Form Purpose
Use Count Detail (IC73.1) to enter item count detail for a select ID. You
must create a freeze file in IC170 (Freeze Selected Items) before you can use
this form. A freeze file is a snapshot of item records for a select ID defined
in IC70.1 (Select IDs). Page numbers and line numbers are defined when you
create a freeze file for a select ID.)

This form lets you delete item freeze records for a select ID or add detail
information to count records added in IC72.1 (Counts by Page) or IC74.1
(Random Counts). You can use this form to enter count quantities, secondary
unit of measure count quantities for catch weight items, and/or unit costs. An
item's unit cost is used to value positive variance counts when stock
quantities are added to inventory.

**More Information
After a count quantity is entered this form displays count variances and
enables you to enter reason codes. Count variances are based on the item's
count quantity and freeze quantity. The freeze quantity is what the item's
stock quantity was when a freeze file was created for the select ID. You can
only use reason codes for reporting purposes. You cannot use reason codes to
override the normal offset general ledger account set up for physical
inventory in IC04.1 (General Ledger Category).

Item counts are updated to inventory when IC175 (Update Variances) is run in
update mode. Prior to update you can run IC175 in nonupdate mode to print the
Variance Report, then explain variances by reason code in any count entry form
(IC72, IC73, or IC74). After update you can only explain count variances in
IC76.1 (Variance Reasons).

Note Performing a physical inventory count using the Inventory Control
application involves several steps. Refer to the Inventory Control User Guide
for more information.
