Cycle counting lot and serial tracked parts

Our business is on v10 IEE, and we have lot and serial tracked parts. We are trying to configure weekly cycle count reports that include a specified number of parts to count and ALL lots / serials of those parts on each report. We are combining the Include Full Qty Of Part In Location parameter option with the Number of records to be Printed option.

 

The hope was that, upon specifying a Number of Records, for example 15, the resulting count report includes 15 different part numbers, and all of the different lots/serials for those – which could be well over 15 lines to count on the report depending on the number of lots/serials in stock for those 15 parts. In actuality, we have found the Number of Records parameter restricts the number of lines on the report, not number of parts – for example, the resulting report may contain 10 different lots of Part A, and 5 different lots of Part B; we end up performing a full count of two part numbers only, when the intent is to include many more part numbers.

 

Has anyone faced this challenge, and discovered a solution or workaround to achieve the desired result? Do newer versions of IFS than we are running address this?

We have the same issue and I cannot seem to find a solution within IFS or any other topics in this community.  It seems like a request that many IFS customers would have.  This is extremely frustrating as we waste hours a day with manual work arounds to count what is a logical cycle count process.

Where would one add this idea? I really want to understand the best way to configure these count reports to work with our business logic
