Serial/Lot Numbers Allocation / Generation Form
If you have a license to use Serialized Inventory and Lot Tracking, you can allocate serial numbers and lot numbers to items that you sell and to items that you return to inventory.
While serial numbers and lot numbers are maintained in Inventory Control, you can use the O/E Order Entry, O/E Shipment Entry, Invoice Entry, and O/E Debit/Credit Note Entry forms to allocate these numbers to items. Also, when invoicing for a quantity that is different from the quantity you shipped, you can allocate numbers using the Invoice Entry form.
The Serial/Lot Numbers Allocation form
appears when you enter a quantity for a serialized or lotted item in the
Order Entry, Shipment Entry, Invoice Entry, and Credit/Debit Note Entry
forms, and then press the Tab key or click the Zoom (
) button. It lets you assign serial numbers
and lot numbers to items that you sell in Order Entry.
Qty. Shipped is the default field for opening the allocation form. If you want to open the form from the Qty. Ordered field, you need to select the options to do so in Inventory Control . (If your system uses security, you must have Inventory Control Setup Maintenance authorization to change these options.)
The Serial/Lot Numbers Generation form appears when you enter a quantity in a credit note for a serialized or lotted item. It lets you identify existing serial numbers and lot numbers, or generate new numbers, for an item that you are returning to inventory. (You cannot assign lot numbers or serial numbers for Damaged Item or Price Adjustment credit types.)
The forms can display one or both of the following tabs, depending on whether the item is serialized or lotted, or both. For information on these tabs, click the following links:
