INV Cycle count entries and adjustments - Case Study & Technical Analysis
Executive Summary
The INV Cycle count entries and adjustments report is a critical audit and control document that details the results of the cycle counting process. It lists the items counted, the system quantity, the actual counted quantity, and most importantly, the variance (adjustment) required to reconcile the two. This report is the primary source for analyzing inventory shrinkage or gain and is often required for financial sign-off on inventory adjustments.
Business Use Cases
- Variance Approval: Managers review this report to approve large adjustments before they are posted to the General Ledger.
- Shrinkage Analysis: Identifies items with consistent negative variances (missing stock), which may indicate theft or process errors.
- Accuracy Reporting: Provides the raw data to calculate inventory record accuracy (IRA).
- Audit Trail: Serves as the permanent record of what was counted, who counted it (if tracked), and what the result was.
Technical Analysis
Core Tables
MTL_CYCLE_COUNT_ENTRIES: The core transaction table storing the count results (System Qty, Count Qty, Adjustment Qty).MTL_CYCLE_COUNT_HEADERS: Defines the cycle count name and parameters.MTL_SYSTEM_ITEMS_VL: Item master details.MTL_ITEM_LOCATIONS_KFV: Locator details.MTL_ABC_CLASSES: ABC classification for the items.
Key Joins & Logic
- Variance Calculation: The report calculates
ADJUSTMENT_QUANTITY=COUNT_QUANTITY-SYSTEM_QUANTITY. - Value Calculation:
ADJUSTMENT_VALUE=ADJUSTMENT_QUANTITY*ITEM_COST. - Status Filtering: Can filter by entry status (e.g., ‘Pending Approval’, ‘Completed’).
- Approvals: If the adjustment exceeds the approval tolerance defined in the Cycle Count Header, the entry is marked for approval.
Key Parameters
- Cycle Count Name: The specific count definition.
- Subinventory: Filter by specific storage area.
- Start/End Date: The period of the count.
- Approved Counts Only: If ‘Yes’, only shows adjustments that have been finalized.
Oracle E-Business Suite Reporting Library
We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.
Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.
Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.
The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.

The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.

You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.
The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.
