Once the basic count template information, such as name and type, has been entered, the items or bins can be assigned. Below the table of count templates are three links.

There is a difference between Count by Bin, and Count by Bin Only. Count by Bin Only is exclusive to the assigned bin range and does not have the user count the overstock locations for each item found in the bins.
