Cycle counting is an inventory auditing process where a subset of inventory is counted on a scheduled basis to ensure accuracy without requiring a full physical inventory.
A warehouse performs a cycle count of all high-value electronics every Friday, while lower-cost inventory items are counted monthly. This helps them maintain accurate inventory records year-round without halting operations.

Cycle counts should be performed regularly based on inventory value and movement — high-value or fast-moving items might be counted weekly, while lower-value items may be counted monthly or quarterly.
Cycle counting is often better for operational efficiency because it maintains accuracy without requiring shutdowns, but full physical inventories are sometimes still required for financial audits.
Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) often include cycle counting modules, and barcode scanners or RFID technology can speed up and improve the accuracy of cycle counts.
