Chapter 3: Using Wireless Scanners with Furniture Wizard

3.5 Taking Physical Inventory - Inventory Function

(Selection 1)

The Inventory function in the scanner Main Menu (Selection 1) allows you to take a physical inventory by pointing the scanner at each labeled it em and capturing the associated data. After the captured data has been transmitted to Furniture Wizard, the inventory balances are automatically updated and adjusted accordingly.

Important Note!!!

Although you can scan several hundred items, in practice you should only scan a limited group of items at one time. For example, you might scan one area of the warehouse and then transmit the data. You can then append a group of items to the current inventory session.

To select, perform and complete this function, do the follow in g :

1. After logging on to the scanner, press <1> (Inventory), followed by the

2. T o scan a bar-coded item and capture data, point the top of the scanner towards the bar code label on item (Figure 42), and then press the yellow Scan key beneath the information window, making sure the red laser light is beaming across the bar code. The red button above the information window lights up when the scanner is in the process of capturing data, and it beeps when it completes the data capture.

key.

Figure 42: Small Tag

24 Furniture Wizard CPT-8061 Wireless Scanner Use and Installation v10

3. In general, the memory in the scanner unit is sufficient to store captured data for several hundred items. If you are capturing inventory data for a large number of units in a large physi cal space (for example, in a wareh ouse), transmit the captured data after compl eting the scan of a portion of the stored inventory. For example, transmit the captured data after you have completed scanning the northern section of a large warehouse, a corner section, etc.

Do Not Attempt to Scan An Entire Store or Warehouse Branch All at Once! You should do your inventory in smaller, easier to manage

segments, instead of trying to do the entire inventory branch at once. This will be easier for both you and the scanner to manage.

4. Press to view a listing of all scanned items. The total number of items scanned displays at the bottom of the scanner window.

5. To view more information about the item, press the Scroll Right key below the Backspace key to scroll right, and the Scroll Left key below the ESC key to scroll left.

6. Press to return to the single item view. The most recent item viewed is displayed. To display a different item, return to the list mode by pressing the Backspace key and use the arrow keys to select the item you want to view.

7. After you have completed scanning of all desired inventory items, simultaneously press the <FN Alpha> and <0> keys to transmit the captured data to Furniture Wizard.

8. After the scanner has transmitted the captured data, it automatically appears in the Reconcile Inventory function in Furniture Wizard (Figure 43). To complete the inventory transactions resulting from the captured data, specify the branch for which the inventory is being entered and click OK.

Figure 43: Inventory Reconciliation Form

Chapter 3: Using Wireless Scanners with Furniture Wizard

9. When using this function, Furniture Wizard also gives you the opportunity to append the scanned inventory transaction to a previous session. You would generally do this if you are performing an inventory in segments, and wish to add the transact ions scanned in a later session to those scanned in an earlier session.

 To do this, click Yes when the Append to an Existing Inventory Session dialog

box is displayed.

 If you do not wish to append the transaction to those scanned in an earlier session,

click No.

10. Clicking Show All displays all inventory scanned, while clicking Show Differences displays discrepancies.

11. Click Reconcile Report to create a report showing the quantity in stock according to Furniture Wizard, the number scanned (actual count) and any difference between the two numbers.

12. Take the necessary steps to determine the cause of the discrepancies.

13. When you have reconciled all of the data, or if you want to reconcile all except the unresolved discrepancies, do one the following:

 Select the check box next to each item you want to reconcile. Click an individual

item to select or “unselect” it.

 Click Tag All to select all items  Click UnTag All to remove all check marks.

14. Click Update Inventory to update Furniture Wizard according to the reconciliation report. Any inventory items with unresolved discrepancies will still be listed in the Inventory Reconciliation function.
