Inventory Cycle counting SOP

Inventory Cycle Counting SOP

Whether you are performing a cycle count on an entire rack or doing a full wall to wall physical inventory, there are a number of checks and balances that you must put in place in order to guarantee the integrity and accuracy of the process.  What you need to put in place may vary based on the features in your Warehouse Management System. 

Initial Count Set Up

(We will email you the document immediately)

There are two approaches we recommend you use for this process. 

Option One: outlines a two step process where inventory counters will go through the racks using a handheld and look up the inventory in the location.  If it matches, they check the “Good” box.  Otherwise they check the Short of Over box.  When the counter finishes the list of locations on the count sheet assigned to them, they return it to the audit station.

Step Two: of this process will take the discrepancies noted in the initial count and research the discrepancies reported.  For location that show a shortage, the counter will look for other discrepancies showing an overage for that same item.  Once found, they will perform an inventory move from the short location to the overage location to balance out the count.
