Summary of procedures

In Autoline, there are three types of Stock Check, Full (count everything), Partial (count selected parts within a range, ie by Franchise, Bin or Part range), and Perpetual (system generated daily count).  All three are generated from the same menu.  Once generated, generally the procedure through to completion is the same with the exception of Rough Sheets and some reports not being required for Perpetual Stock Checks.

For Perpetual Stock Checks, there is some initial setup required.  Contact Systime Support for assistance with this setup.
