# Stocktaking count (IN305010)

Last modified February 19, 2026

> In this window, you can view the stocktaking documents that have the Counting in progress status and enter the data that results from stocktaking count.


This topic provides information about the elements in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

In this window, you can view the stocktaking documents that have the **Counting in progress** status and enter the data that results from stocktaking count.
Once
you enter any digit in this window, the system commits the data to the database.
This
makes the entered data immediately visible to all users who may be simultaneously
using this window for data entry or managing the stocktaking in the [Stocktaking review (IN305000)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/inventory/inventory-windows/stocktaking-review-in305000/index.md) window.

For more information about how to take stocktaking with Visma Net, see [About stocktaking](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/inventory/manage-stocktaking-counts/about-stocktaking/index.md)

## The top part

You use this area to select a stocktaking document with the **Counting in progress** status.
For your convenience while you are entering count data, you
can select the lines that contain particular stock items, relate to a particular
location, or fall within a particular range of line numbers.

## The table

This table contains the list of stock items arranged by warehouse location, subitem, and lot or serial number in the order specified in the [Prepare stocktaking (IN504000)](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/inventory/inventory-windows/prepare-stocktaking-in504000/index.md) window. The quantities resulting from stocktaking should be entered manually.

Each line in the document has its own status.
Once a quantity is entered for the
line, the status of the line changes from **Not entered** or **Skipped** to
**Entered**.

### The Add line dialog box

By using this dialog box, you can add a line specifying an stock item, and
you can effectively add items by scanning their bar codes.
To accomplish this,
make sure the **Add receipt line automatically** option is
selected.

Once the item bar code is scanned, the system finds the item record and fills in the dialog box elements using the item default values.

Then you can select the **Add one unit per bar code** option to increase the item quantity by one unit each time you scan the bar code or enter the item quantity manually.
