Perform Cycle Counts with the Mobile App
Complete the cycle counts assigned to you using Intelligent Sales on the Salesforce mobile app. The Cycle Counts page shows your assigned counts. And you don’t have to worry about looking up the latest expected numbers for your products because Intelligent Sales automatically pulls in all that data for you.

If you’re counting a serialized inventory, simply scan the barcodes of your products and Intelligent Sales counts the serial numbers for you. On the other hand, if you’re counting products without serial numbers, you still need to manually count the numbers and enter them into the mobile app.
- Go to the Cycle Counts page on the Salesforce mobile app.
- Tap the cycle count you want to start.
-
Tap Start Visit.
You can see the time elapsed for this count on your screen in the HH:MM format.
- Tap the visit task that tells you to count your inventory.
-
On the Cycle Count Products screen, enter the quantity you counted for each product (for
products without serial numbers) or tap the Barcode Scanner icon (for products with serial
numbers).
If your count only has products without serial numbers, you can skip to step 9.
-
Use the barcode scanner to scan your products.
Tip Make sure to keep your mobile device steady and have only one barcode in the scanner’s focus area. If you have too many codes in the focus area, the scanner doesn’t recognize them. -
After you’re done scanning barcodes, tap Done to see the list of
serial numbers you scanned.
You can also add serial numbers manually, scan more serial numbers, or remove serial numbers on this screen.
-
When you’re sure that you have the required serial numbers for the product you counted, tap
Save.
Warning Make sure that you’ve recorded all the serial numbers for the product before saving. You can’t make changes to this list after you save it. If you need to make changes, you have to start from scratch. -
After you’ve recorded the quantities for every product, tap Complete
Count and select Complete.
If your admin has configured any custom flows for visit actions, such as marking lost inventory or transferring products, tap the Actions icon to launch that flow. If there aren’t any compatible flows configured in your org, the Actions icon doesn’t work.
- After all required tasks are complete, tap End Visit.
-
Enter any comments you have and select Complete Visit to close the
count.
And that’s it, you’re done! You can find the numbers for the expected quantities and the counted quantities in the Key Performance Indicator records associated with the cycle count visit record.
