How to do cycle counts by bin location

Not that I am aware of

Welcome to the QuickBooks Community, @RKPII. I'm here to give you details about this.

In QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), you can assign a bin location to the items for the cycle count. Let me walk you through the process:

1. Navigate to the Inventory menu and click Cycle count.
2. Choose Create new cycle count.
3. Next, select a Site.
4. Click Find & Select Items, then use Find and/or the dropdown to identify the items for the cycle count. You can also use custom fields to filter multiple items at once.
5. Mark the desired items and then select Add Selected Items. Your cycle count form will appear.
6. If a single item is in more than one bin location, a separate line (task) will show for each bin location for that item.
7. Next, assign to a specific warehouse person if needed.

For your reference about the process, feel free to open this article: Cycle Count in Advanced Inventory. It also provides steps in resolving discrepancies and closing a cycle count.

I've also attached this helpful link for suggestions on how you might manage your inventory in various ways: Setup and use the Warehouse Manager in QuickBooks Desktop mobile. 

Should you have any other concerns with doing cycle counts in QBDT. Leave a reply below. I'm always here to listen and ensure your needs are met.

Thanks for the reply. I've found those instructions quite a few times. I am looking for a way where I can batch add every part in a certain bin location, instead of searching for every part number in said location. As it's already tracked in QuickBooks, I don't want to have a separate list of bin locations just to do cycle counts.

Has there been an update in QB's to do this? I have multiple aisles with multiple shelves/bins and searching by item and manually adding parts is a waste of time.
