09/15/2022, 2:21 PMYou can set your items up with a next count date. and an A, B, C priority.
Calculated counts will generate a list of items due to be counted.
Manual count is just selecting individual items to be counted.
There are applications in NetSuite for doing inventory counts. A WMS just leverages those in a mobile-friendly format that allows you to count from a hand scanner or tablet.
You can still create a count in NetSuite.

09/15/2022, 2:22 PMIf I were doing a count without a scanner, I'd either have a laptop I could push on a cart that I could key in the values directly on the count record, or ->
Create a transaction saved search on Inventory Counts.
Have relevant fields ready in the search, Item, Bin, Units, Count QUantity, Count Detail, Memo.
Then I'd go around with a clipboard and count. Then enter the data in the count record at a computer.
