Overview

The count has been created, and you're prepared, now use the screens that have been optimized to quickly scan or key in Products and for multiple simultaneous users.

For a full understanding of our Inventory Counting system please see Overview of Inventory Counting in Cloud Retailer. 

NOTE: Versions prior to 4.6 of Cloud Retailer, the Complete Audit (Entire store / Customr filter) options were referred to as "All products" and "Use a filter" respectively.  For earlier documentation see here.
