IC170 - Freeze Selected Items
**Form Purpose
Run Freeze Selected Items (IC170) to generate a freeze file for current item
stock quantities. A freeze file is a snapshot of current records for a select
ID defined in IC70.1 (Select IDs). After you create a freeze file you can
print count sheets and/or tags in IC270 (Count Sheets) for recording purposes.
Performing cycle counts using the Inventory Control application involves
several steps.
**Processing Effect
Actual counts are entered in IC72.1 (Counts by Page), IC73.1 (Count Detail),
or IC74.1 (Random Counts). Item counts are updated to inventory when you run
IC175 (Update Variances) in update mode. Prior to update you can run IC175 in
nonupdate mode to print the Variance Report, then explain variances in any
count entry form. After the update you must use IC76.1 (Variance Reasons) to
explain variances.
**More Information
You must delete freeze records before you can use the select ID again for
another physical inventory count. When you delete records depends on when you
explain variances. If you explain variance prior to update, you can delete
records in IC175 (Update Variances). If you explain variances after updating
you must delete records in IC179 (Delete Freeze Records).
If an item location is frozen, you cannot enter an inventory transaction with
a transaction date less than the freeze date. However, you can enter a
transaction with a transaction date equal to or greater than the freeze date.
