Stocktake Batch - Edit - Load from Hand Held

This utility is provided to accept high speed data (item/count) from a device that imports data and acts just like a keyboard entry (e.g. a barcode scanner), or from a file that has been created containing the stocktake count. You can also use it for manual data entry where you want to quickly key in the item then the quantity.

You must have already created a stocktake batch in Micronet containing all the items in the stocktake.

 

Technical Tip

To access this option, the registration code for Simple Hand Held must be turned on in your company configuration (for more information, refer to "Edit Company - Registration").

2.8 Feature

If this option is disabled even though you have access to the Simple Hand Held functions, refer instead to "Stocktake Batch - Edit - Upload Line Records (v2.8)".

 

 

Technical Tip

This program does not verify the item number during the entry process. Entries where the item number does not match a Micronet item number are printed on the last page of your stocktake report with the descriptions blank.

To load data from a hand held device into a stocktake batch:

  1. Display the Stocktake Batch screen for the required stocktake batch.

Refer to "Creating a New Stocktake Batch" or "Recalling a Stocktake Batch".

  1. Select EDIT | LOAD FROM HAND HELD.

Micronet displays the Load from Hand Held screen.

  1. In the Append Quantity field, select Yes to add the stocktake quantity for each item loaded into the stocktake batch, or No to overwrite the stocktake quantity for each item.
  1. Select the Accept button.

Micronet displays the Enter Auto Stock Line screen.

  1. Optionally, select Download on your hand held batch stocktake scanner to automatically load items into the stocktake batch.

Micronet accepts the data and loads each item into the stocktake batch.

  1. Alternatively, complete the following fields to manually enter item numbers, quantities and bin locations:

 

Field

Value

 

Item Number

Enter the item number of the item you want to add to the batch.

 

First Count

Enter the quantity of the item.

 

New Bin

Enter the item's bin location if required.
  1. Select the Accept button.

Micronet redisplays the Enter Auto Stock Line screen so you can continue adding items to the batch.

  1. When you have finished adding items to the batch, select the Cancel button.

Micronet redisplays the Stocktake Batch screen.

You should now print a Stocktake Processing Report, create a variance batch if required, and then post the batch.
