Customer Needs

Manufacturers and distributors often require lot numbers to be created more effectively for full traceability. Lot numbers must carry specific information, such as production date, expiration date, work date, item number, and source document number. Companies typically combine part of this information to create a suitable lot number for a specific situation. For example, food manufacturers may trace finished goods by the lot number carrying production date and item number information. At the same time, distribution companies may use lot numbers containing expiration dates and item numbers.

Key Features and Functionality

  • Design lot algorithms through a user-friendly brand-new page.
  • Create a variety of algorithms by combining different parameters such as source document number, production date, work date, expiration date, item number, number series, work center code, and work shift code along with a counter and constant.

  • Assign the customized lot numbers to inbound/outbound documents and journal worksheets through the Item Tracking Lines page.
