Hi Charley,
We just recently scrapped MAPICS' Cycle Count and I wrote our own.
MAPICS was too cumbersome to use, and you couldn't control how may parts
you counted per day.
Also, we had a problem when anyone did a PH transaction for an item in 1
location, MAPICS updated the Last PH Date in the ITEMBL file with the new
date, so we couldn't pick up that Item in any other location for the next
cycle count. I think the date of Last PH should be at the Item/Locn
level, not the Item/Whse.
I have ours set up to count a set amount of parts per day for each Cycle
Count Code. So every item will be counted at least once per year with
Cycle Counting.
Good Luck:-)
Thanx,
Nick

[MAPICS-L] Cycle Count...
XA R6
Howdy!
We are getting ready to re-implement our Cycle Count initiative. While
I have used CC programs in other systems, I have not personally run the
XA one. Before I pull out the IM User Guide and cure my insomnia, are
there any pearls of wisdom that you folks are willing to share that will
help me short-cut my reading as well as my testing?
Thanks!
Charley
