Opening the counting task

The operator opens the counting-task list on the PDT. The list shows the tasks assigned to this operator — each one created in the client app when the count was planned.

A task is a list of cells to recount, arranged along a recommended route so the operator walks the warehouse in an efficient order instead of criss-crossing the aisles. Several operators can work their own tasks in parallel — each task covers its own zone.

To start counting, the operator opens a task and presses Start inventory («Почати інвентаризацію») — the count moves to the In Progress status (see Count statuses), and the screen moves to the first cell on the route, described in the next step.

Counting-task list on the PDT — one assigned count

What the opened task shows next to each position depends on the inventory count type chosen at planning:

Blind

Opened blind count in Draft — the Start inventory button; no planned quantities anywhereAfter the start — the finish badge in the top bar and the Add line link appear

Assisted

Opened assisted count in Draft — the Plan column visible before the startAfter the start — the finish badge and Add line; the Plan column stays

Variance

Opened variance count — a single quantity column pre-filled with the recorded quantitiesAfter the start — the values stay pre-filled until the operator corrects them
On clientPlanning the count

Counting tasks are created in the client app — see the planning phase for how the scope and the executors are chosen.
