Allow Count Cycles for Rotating Items to be managed using combination of Count Books and Inventory physical count dates.

Take the most recent (last count date) in the Count Date (COUNTBOOKLINE.PHYSCNTDATE) field from Count Books record for a rotating item and populate this date in the Physical Count Date (INVBALANCES.PHYSCNTDATE) field on the Inventory record for the rotating item.

Not looking for the Physical Count to be crossed over since mismatches need to be resolved with appropriate action to the rotating asset record.

Looking for the Physical Count Date on the Inventory record to be updated so the Count Frequency can be used to determine when the rotating item should be counted again.

This will allow the warehouse to better manage cycle counts for the rotating items within Maximo Manage.
