Assigning Count Sheets to a Mobile Device

You can assign prepared count sheets to a mobile device. Doing this creates a mobile count sheet activity. When assigning a count sheet, you can select a specific device, or you can assign the computer later from the Mobile Computing view. You can also specify the shift and employee to collect the information.

This topic explains how to create and assign a mobile count sheet activity.
