Lot Tracing

The Lot Tracing Inquiry option can be used to quickly generate a lot history report for any lot that has not been retained out. It will Trace the shipped item and lot back to the original source product item and purchase order lot. The Lot Trace Inquiry will source lots for both unlotted and lotted items back to the original source lot. As inventory moves throughout the system from one item to another via Inventory Transfers, Planned Transfers, and Work Orders, the original or source product purchase item and lot are attached to the new lot created for both lotted and unlotted items. Lot numbers are assigned to lotted and individually lot costed items based on the lot assigned by the user. Unlotted items are assigned lots based on the transaction that created the lot and assigned to sales orders when the cost of goods sold process is run either manually from the menu or via the Close End of Day process.

Note: Sales Order for Unlotted items must be costed to be included in the Lot Trace Inquiry Reports

Note: If the lot has been retained out of the system you will not be able to trace back the lot.
