Hi Adam,
Each 8-1/2 x 11 sheet has 20 "tags", about 40 pages.
- Sorted by Bin location
(We only use about 20 blank tags, so one sheet for them).
The pages split up between a few people & they can just walk around the shop and count once.
I have one more custom report style to list the variances - again sorted by bin location.
- recount
- tag entry
- post
>most of the tags (4 reams of paper worth) are useless.In my case, I made a custom report style.

Our biggest issues is that our bins in the warehouse are so out of whack with Epicor that most of the tags (4 reams of paper worth) are useless. I really despise the idea of having to mark all of these tags as being returned. Also, the amount of paper required to use duplicate tags, and the extra work involved in colating different paper colors to make management happy.

Now, it appears we must use generated tags on a warehouse/bin level. This would be fine, if our people knew how to put things back/stock them correctly. Physical inventory is where we fix these issues.
