Cycle Counting help please!!

[david13]

can anyone tell me how to run a daily cycle count on MAS?
I do not show any reports available to run reports based on A-B-C cycle codes.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

In the Inventory Module Report Folder the INVENTORY STOCK STATUS and INVENTORY REORDER Reports both have an options "Inventory Cycle" "All" is checked by default. Uncheck this and place the cycle code in the box. There is not a lookup, you have to know the code.

Thanks, but in every other system I have worked in, I first do ABC Analysis: 80/15/5 rule based on sales / volume. Then using the "Cycle" as the time required to count all inventory items at least once, the report will generate with a predetermined number of sku's (I'll use 100 for example). 80 will be "A", 15 will be "B" and 5 will be "C".
I do not see how a proper "Cycle Count" is possible in MAS.
From what I see, the "cycle" designation in MAS is only good for grouping items together.
Somebody PLEASE tell me I'm wrong!!

You are not wrong, following is exactly what the Help says about Inventory Cycle in Mas:

"Type a code representing the cycle to be associated with this item. Inventory cycles can be used to group items for reporting and for physical inventory processing."

I don't believe Mas proclaims to do what you are looking for. I'm sure you could create a crystal report to generate this info for you. KSAP
