inventory counts
Counting stored goods
Inventory counts are physical tallies of stock on hand, conducted to verify that recorded quantities match actual quantities.
Businesses perform inventory counts periodically—annually, quarterly, or through rolling cycle counts—to catch discrepancies from theft, damage, or clerical errors.
The warehouse shut down for two days during the annual inventory count.
