Product Tag Details:

TAG NUMBER

In Add mode, there are two methods of setting the Tag numbers:

1. Blocks of Tag Numbers can be pre-assigned to a location as outlined in Define Count Tag Range by Location.
   If any block of numbers is assigned, then All products counted at that location will be restricted to a tag within this range, and does not automatically default to the next number.

   Available tags that have been generated in Generate Count Tags can be selected from the Count Tag Selection window on the Tag Number field.

2. If no block is setup for a location, the Tag Numbers will be auto-assigned, so that the next sequential tag number is defaulted in Add mode.
   Tag numbers can also be manually entered, or skipped, or burned.

In Change mode a window is provided to view and select from existing tags as outlined in Count Tag Selection.
The count on existing tags can be adjusted before the worksheet is updated.

PRODUCT NUMBER

Enter the Sales or Rental product counted on this tag, or select one from the Inventory Search window.

Note: If a Count Tag has already been processed for a product, that product cannot be selected for an additional tag.

Multiple Count Tags can be created for each product, however all Count Tags for a product must be submitted for a location at the same time to update the Inventory Worksheet using Update Worksheet with Count Tags.
After the Count Tags have updated the worksheet, the Counted field on the worksheet can be adjusted manually if required, but no further Count Tags can be used for that product at that location.

SERIAL NUMBER

This field only applies to serialized sales parts and non-bulk rentals.

For serialized sales items enter an existing serial number or select it from the Select Serial Number window.
Only serial numbers already associated with that sales product can be entered, even if they do not appear in the search window. (i.e. at another location, or already disposed)
This count utility is meant to reconcile the quantity not specific serial numbers, so if serial numbers need to be corrected this must be done in Sales Inventory.

For non-bulk rentals this is a display information field only.

COUNT QUANTITY

Enter the total count for this product at this location.

BIN LOCATION

This is an information only field that displays the bin number or location defined for the product in Sales Inventory or Rental Inventory.
