Generate Lot/Batch Number for Co-Product
Explanation
Use this activity to generate and reserve a lot/batch number to a
co-product of a shop order.
To generate a lot/batch number for a co-product, click Traceability
and then click Generate Lot/Batch No.
In the Generate Lot/Batch Number dialog:
- To reserve alphanumeric prefixes for lot/batch number, enter that number
in the Lot Batch String field. By default, the value entered in the
Lot Batch String field appears on the Inventory
Part/Manufacturing page. If the field is left empty, the main
product order based lot/batch number
is generated for the co-product.
Note: A co-product can have only one lot/batch
number.
Prerequisites
- A shop order must have been created at a site with Use Shop
Order Lot/Batch No for Co-Products disabled on the
Site/Manufacturing page.
- The shop order must have a
co-product part with Lot/Batch Tracking set to
Lot Tracking in the Lot/Batch Tracking section
on the Part page.
System Effects
- The system reserves a lot/batch number for the shop order co-product
line.
- If the lot/batch number does not already exist for the part, new
record is created on the Part Lot Batch page.
