Running The Scanned Stock Count Input Report

If a hand held Bar Code scanner has been used to scan the products to be counted as part of the Stock Count, a user - after running the Import Scanned Stock Count Data Process  - will need to run the Scanned Stock Count Input Report to generate a report of the data.

1.      Open the Stock Control tab. See Opening The Stock Control Tab.
