PC Soft ERP Solution Pvt Ltd, headquartered in Pune, offers truly integrated Manufacturing ERP software<\/a> that helps manufacturers efficiently conduct various manufacturing operations, including inventory counting.
Let us understand what Inventory Counting is
To boost productivity and increase profitability, as a manufacturer, you must keep a constant inventory count of raw materials, subassemblies, parts, semi-finished goods, and finished goods. Inventory counting is a vital aspect of the inventory management system and refers to the entire process of physically verifying and counting each inventory item.
Inventory counting is crucial and performed to,
\u2022 Determine inventory management issues such as stocking mistakes, damaged goods, pending orders, stuck orders, and so on.
\u2022 Identify and resolve issues with relevant inventory management processes.
\u2022 Determine which product categories are not moving in comparison to others and develop an appropriate sales strategy.
\u2022 Control inventory procurement to avoid over-or under-stocking.
\u2022 Identify misplaced items, thefts, and so on.
\u2022 Maintain accurate inventory records for audits and valuation.
Methods used to perform inventory counting.
To keep a check on inventory, manufacturers have always conducted inventory counting. For this, manufacturers have used several traditional methods to conduct. These are
\u2022 Periodic Inventory Counting
Periodic inventory counting is a planned activity that occurs once or twice a year, depending on the policies of the enterprise. In this method, the manufacturing company closes its production unit, warehouses, and retail stores for a set period of time and counts the inventory items that are currently on its premises.
\u2022 Counting in Cycles
In contrast to periodic counting, cyclic counting is done in cycles for specific products or groups of products. Other products\/categories are counted at different times and cycles. Depending on their requirements on the shop floor, each category\/group is assigned a different counting cycle.
\u2022 Counting on the Spot
Ad-hoc counting, as the name implies, is done immediately after an issue with the inventory is discovered. This is an unplanned counting activity that is performed only when a situation requires it, rather than waiting for the next counting cycle.
However, these methods are mostly performed manually and are time-consuming, dangerous, and frequently inaccurate. To stay competitive, manufacturers must use smart measures to count inventory accurately and quickly. Automation is essential, and they must adopt an efficient technology to streamline workflows in order to save time and money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Pc Soft ERP Software improves inventory counting
<\/strong>PC Soft, the best ERP solution provider aids manufacturers in efficiently and accurately counting their inventory. It presents a truly integrated ERP software, with its comprehensive, integrated modules that can assist manufacturers in automating the inventory counting process and reducing costs, time, and manpower.
Let’s see how it goes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


RFID and barcode integration
<\/strong>The truly integrated ERP solution for manufacturers is simple to integrate with bar-code and RFID systems. Personnel can use portable printers to quickly print bar code labels and apply them to goods during goods receipt. The data is then stored in the ERP’s centralised database after they are scanned with portable bar code scanners. As a result, manufacturers have a comprehensive record and count of items received and those already in stock. The best part of PC Soft\u2019s ERP system is to eliminate manual inventory recording methods and the associated errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Warehouse Management
<\/strong>Our truly integrated ERP solution for manufacturers offers an excellent warehouse management<\/a> module through which personnel can assign these items to a specific section within a warehouse and track their movement within and outside the warehouse. PC Soft\u2019s ERP solution can track the shelf life of each material, assign storage bins based on categories (item types) and other classifications, record material details on arrival in real-time, and conduct inventory counting using cycle count or full inventory methods. During counting operations, personnel can quickly track and count items using parameters such as item type, location, and warehouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Lot Management
<\/strong>When each item has its own identity, inventory counting becomes much easier. SKU codes and lot numbers can be assigned to each item by the manufacturer. PC Soft\u2019s ERP solution for manufacturers assigns lot numbers that include the source location, expiration dates, procurement date, and so on. Lot management can be used to identify and track perishable goods, hazardous products, and commodities with a shelf life.
With lot numbers and SKU codes provided by our PC Soft\u2019s ERP solution for each product, personnel can easily conduct inventory counts and track each item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
