Entering Actual Quantities on Hand in Journals

After the physical count has been completed, you must enter the actual quantities on hand in the physical inventory journal.

To Enter Actual Quantities on Hand in Journals:

  1. Open the Phys. Inventory Journal window.

  2. On each line – where the actual inventory on hand, as determined by a physical count, differs from the calculated quantity – you must enter the actual inventory on hand in the Qty. (Phys. Inventory) field. For Help about a specific field, click the field and press F1.

  3. The program automatically updates the relevant fields.

Note

If the physical count reveals differences that have been caused when items have been posted with incorrect location codes, do not enter the differences in the physical inventory journal. Instead, use the item transfer journal to transfer the items to the correct location(s). For Help on how to transfer items between locations, click here.
