 The Physical Inventory Count function is used to make batch based corrections to inventory quantities. Physical Count can create one large batch for the entire inventory, or many smaller batches based on various filter methods. Counts can be entered either manually or by using the Scan Batch feature to import files from data collector devices or scan in items using hand scanners. Physical Count batches can be used to print count sheets.  The Physical Inventory Count function is used to make batch based corrections to inventory quantities.
