核心功能
Full physical inventory and recurring cycle count workflows delivered as native AL table, page, and codeunit objects on top of Business Central's Item Ledger
Simultaneous multi-user count entry — each counter owns their own count sheet lines against a shared count header, with no row-locking collisions or overwrites
Barcode / GS1 / SKU scan capture via an AL event subscriber that resolves the scanned code to item, variant, bin, and tracking
Flexible count sheets segmented by location, zone, bin range, item category, or ABC velocity class
Cycle count cadence engine — schedule counts by frequency or velocity so fast-moving and high-value SKUs are counted more often than the annual freeze
Variance reconciliation against a configurable tolerance threshold, with side-by-side counted vs. calculated on-hand quantities
Approval workflow for out-of-tolerance variances before anything posts to the ledger
Clean posting into the standard Phys. Inventory / Item Journal so costing, valuation, and the audit trail remain native to BC
Lot and serial number capture on count lines where Item Tracking is enabled
Recount and blind-count modes — hide system on-hand from counters to keep counts honest
Dedicated permission sets shipped with the extension so warehouse and finance roles see only what they should
Optional OData v4 / REST API endpoints and Job Queue jobs for Power BI variance dashboards and scheduled count generation
Optional Power Platform / Dataverse virtual-table exposure for a Power Apps handheld counting app
Count session reports and variance audit log exportable to Excel via the native BC layout engine

关于此产品
Inventory accuracy without the spreadsheet shuffle
Business Central ships physical inventory counting through the Phys. Inventory Journal and Phys. Inventory Order/Recording documents, but real warehouse counting quickly outgrows them: one journal per counter, no barcode capture, no zone segmentation, and reconciliation that mixes blind counts with on-hand quantities. Advanced Inventory Counting & Cycle Count is a custom AL extension that ECOSIRE designs, builds, and installs on your Business Central environment to close those gaps.
The extension adds dedicated count sheet pages and a count-header table (delivered as table and page extensions plus new objects), so multiple warehouse staff can count the same location simultaneously without overwriting each other. Counters scan barcodes / GS1 / SKU on a handheld or phone browser; each scan increments a count line via an AL event subscriber, with bin, lot, and serial captured where item tracking is enabled. You define cycle count cadences (ABC velocity, by bin, by item category, or by zone) so high-value SKUs are counted more often than the full annual freeze.
When counting closes, the reconciliation engine compares counted quantity against calculated on-hand, flags variances against a tolerance threshold, routes them through an approval step, and posts the approved result into the standard Item Journal / Phys. Inventory Journal — so your costing, valuation, and audit trail stay native to Business Central.
ECOSIRE delivers this as a per-tenant extension (not a public AppSource listing): we build it against your exact BC version, install it in sandbox, validate with your data, publish to production, ship the permission sets, and support it after go-live. Optional OData/REST API endpoints and Job Queue automation let you wire counts into Power BI or scheduled variance reports.
你得到什么
- A per-tenant Business Central AL extension (.app) built against your exact BC major version and published to your sandbox and production environments
- Source AL project (table/page/codeunit objects, event subscribers, permission sets) handed over in a Git repository you own
- Installation and publishing in your sandbox, data validation, then production deployment by ECOSIRE
- Configured cycle count cadences, count zones, and tolerance thresholds matching your warehouse setup
- Dedicated permission sets for warehouse-counter and finance-reconciler roles
- Optional OData/REST endpoints and Job Queue jobs configured for reporting or automation
- Admin and counter user guide plus a short handover/training session
- A defined post-go-live support and update window covering BC version compatibility
这是给谁的
Warehouse / Inventory Manager
Runs daily and periodic counts across multiple zones and needs several staff counting at once on handhelds without tripping over each other or freezing operations for a full physical.
Finance / Controller
Owns inventory valuation and the audit trail. Wants variances approved before they hit the ledger and every adjustment posting through the standard Phys. Inventory Journal so costing stays clean.
BC Administrator / IT Lead
Responsible for the tenant. Prefers a supported per-tenant extension with clear permission sets and AL source ownership over ad-hoc customizations or an opaque third-party app.

关于Advanced Inventory Counting & Cycle Count的常见问题
How long does delivery take, and how is it installed?
This is a build-to-order extension, not an instant AppSource download. Typical delivery is about 2 to 4 weeks depending on scope (zones, item tracking, API/Power Platform options). ECOSIRE builds the AL extension against your exact Business Central version, installs and validates it in your sandbox, then publishes it to production as a per-tenant extension. You receive the source AL project in a repository you own.
Do you provide ongoing support and updates after go-live?
Yes. The engagement includes a defined post-go-live support window for fixes and questions, plus compatibility maintenance so the extension keeps working across Business Central's monthly and major-version updates. Because Microsoft ships BC updates regularly, we test the extension against new versions and republish as needed under the agreed support terms. Enhancements beyond the original scope are quoted separately.
Will counting interfere with our existing inventory and costing setup?
No. The extension reads on-hand from the standard Item Ledger and posts approved adjustments through the native Phys. Inventory / Item Journal, so your costing method, valuation, and audit trail stay exactly as Business Central handles them. We add count sheets and reconciliation on top — we don't replace core inventory posting.
Can counters use phones or handheld scanners?
Yes. Barcode capture works through the Business Central web client on a phone or tablet browser and with USB/Bluetooth handheld scanners that emulate keyboard input. For a dedicated mobile counting experience, we can optionally expose count data through Dataverse virtual tables and build a Power Apps handheld app as an add-on.
Why not just use Business Central's built-in physical inventory journals?
The native Phys. Inventory Journal and Phys. Inventory Order work for a single counter doing a periodic count, but they lack barcode-driven capture, true multi-user concurrent count sheets, zone/ABC cycle cadences, and a variance approval step. This extension adds those workflows while still posting back into the same native journals you already trust.
