Cycle Count Unassigned Location

Good morning, I have question if someone knows regarding Cycle Count inventory;

 

We have the Unassigned Bin Location inactive, why is appearing when doing the Cycle Count? We have the items twice, one with the correct Bin Location and one with the Unassigned Location. (See the attachment)

 

Is there a way to eliminate from Cycle Count?

 

Thank you!!

Cycle Count Unassigned Location

Good morning, @tblanco.

 

Thanks for dropping by the QuickBooks Community. How are you doing today? I hope all is well. 

 

Even when inactive, the "Unassigned" bin location will appear in QuickBooks Desktop's cycle count reports because QuickBooks automatically places unassigned inventory into this bin. With that said, the program is working as designed, and there currently isn't a way to remove it from the list. 

 

I can imagine how frustrating this could be when managing your inventory. I think this is the perfect opportunity to send this suggestion to our Product Development Team. Our developers review each request and consider them all for future updates. You can use the link I'm including below to send your feedback at any time. 

 

 

Please don't hesitate to let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with. Have a good one!

Cycle Count Unassigned Location

Hi Tory B

Is there a way to do the Cycle Count by Bin location order? It's difficult to do the Cycle Count by Alphabetical Order!

Thank you.

Thanks for checking back with me, @tblanco.

 

Unfortunately, filtering a cycle count by bin locations in QBDT is unavailable at this time. 

 

However, you can manually create a cycle count list by bin location using the "Find & Select Items" feature, and then manually adjust the order in the cycle count form. Here's how: 

 

  1. Go to Inventory and hit Cycle Count.
  2. Select Create new cycle count.
  3. Click on Site (if appropriate).
  4. Tap Find & Select Items, then use Find to identify the items for the cycle count. You can also search by custom fields to filter multiple items at once.
  5. Select the checkbox next to the items you want to count, then select Add Selected Items.
    Your cycle count form will show.
    • If a single item is in more than one bin location, a separate line (task) will show for each bin location for that item.
    • Each cycle count is limited to 5000 tasks, so if the total items exceed 5000, delete items until you are at or below the limit.
    • Upon creation, cycle counts get split automatically into groups of 200 line items, so if you select a 400 item+bin combination line item, you will see 2 cycle counts created.
  6. Assign to a specific warehouse person if desired.

As I mentioned earlier, you can always submit your feedback to our Product Development Team for further review and possible future updates. To do this, just use the link I included above.
