cycle count
Definition
Periodic inventory system audit-practice in which different portions of an inventory are counted or physically checked on a continuous schedule. Each portion is counted at a definite, preset frequency to ensure counting of each item at least once in an accounting period (usually an year). Fast-moving or more expensive items are counted more often than slower moving or less expensive ones, and certain items are counted every day. Also called cycle inventory.
