Step 3 - Review the Reports


Once you have completed performing the inventory you should review the Physical Inventory reports.

Not Scanned

The Not Scanned report will show all items currently on hand in The Edge that were not inventoried.  Use this report to review items that will be marked as missing at the conclusion of the inventory.

  1. Click Inventory > Physical Inventory > Reports > Not Scanned.
  2. Use the drop-down to select your inventory, then click OK to generate the report.
  3. Work through the report to see if these items are truly missing.  If any of these items are found, you can return to your inventory and scan them now.
  4. Any items that remain on this report will be reconciled, and marked missing, during Step 4 – Reconcile & Finish Inventory.

Scanned

The Scanned report will show all items that were inventoried.  If you use Bulk inventory, it is important to use this report to review discrepancies in bulk quantities.

To run the report:

  1. Click Inventory > Physical Inventory > Reports > Scanned.
  2. Use the drop-down to select your inventory, then uncheck Accurate Counts and check Under Counts and Over Counts.  Click OK to generate the report.
  3. In addition to showing all items that were inventoried, this report will also show bulk items where the quantity inventoried did not match the quantity on file.
  4. Bulk items with quantity discrepancies will be reconciled during Step 4 – Reconcile & Finish Inventory.

Missing

The Missing report will show all items that have been marked missing during this inventory.  

To run the report:

  1. Click Inventory > Physical Inventory > Reports > Missing.
  2. Use the drop-down to select your inventory, then click OK to generate the report.  If you already finished reconciling, you will need to check Show Closed Inventories.
  3. Keep this report for your records.

Errors

The Errors report will show all errors that occurred during the inventory process.  This report is not tied to a specific inventory, but is instead date driven and will include all inventories that occurred between those dates.

To run the report:

  1. Click Inventory > Physical Inventory > Reports > Errors.
  2. Use Error Dates to specify your date range.  This should coincide with the dates you started and finished scanning items for this inventory.
  3. Click the Options tab.  
  4. Under Group/Sort By, check Physical Inventory, then click OK to generate the report.
