Counting Inventory with Acctivate Mobile

With Acctivate Mobile Inventory Management, users can open and post inventory count sessions created on the desktop app without printing huge count sheets. This enables the user to walk the warehouse and scan items as they go rather than writing down the information for someone to enter later. Once posted, the inventory quantities for products listed on the count are adjusting based on quantity entered as an inventory adjustment.

Using this feature requires the count sessions to be created on the desktop app prior to opening on the mobile device. Follow the steps listed here to prepare a new count sheet stopping at step 7.
