JB - I work for an Electrical Distributor in the Southeast. We're right in
the middle of our second weekend of Physical Inventories. Last weekend we
had 27 branches and 25 this weekend. This is our second year on OneWorld.
Our average branch has 5000+ items and about 7000 locations.
We made a couple of modifications to the standard Cycle Count application
and added a couple of new UBE's and applications.
Here's what we did:
*** Modified the "Select Items for Count" UBE to only select items that
are stock or non-stock with Qty on-hand.
*** Created a UBE to add New items to our count. We run our Count sheets
the Monday prior to the weekend of our inventory. So we needed a way to add
the items to our count that we added to our file that have Qty on-hand.
*** Modified the "Cycle Count" application to include Hard Commits.
*** Added the ability to insert a row. This keeps you from having to go to
the end of your count to add a new item.
*** Created a new variance report to update the count code to a "3" on an
item that has a variance. This allows you to easily identify those items
when you're re-entering your counts.
*** Created a UBE to populate a table with the information from your count
and an application to view this information. This allows our associates to
see what was Item, Qty on-hand, Qty counted, etc.....
*** Created another UBE to randomly select items from the count to
calculate the accuracy of the count.
*** Changed an error message to a warning message.
Last weekend and this weekend we've only had a few issues where our
associates were not following our procedures.
A couple of things that you need to be aware of is:
*** When you click the "Replace" button in the row exit, be sure that the
qty in the qty field goes away. Sometimes you have to click this button
twice.
*** Be sure to click the "Reset Frozen" button prior to entering your
counts.
*** When entering your counts click the "OK" button after you've entered a
couple sheets. We've experienced some memory errors that cause you to lose
all the data you've entered.
Hope this helps.
