You cannot use warehouses to which you have been denied access (Operator Maintenance).

Assign a lot number to the stock item.

You can re-use the same lot number for different stock codes if you selected the option: Same lot to be used on multiple stock codes (Lot Traceability Setup).

Indicate the specific bin to which the lot must be allocated.

This only applies if you are using multiple bins against the warehouse (Browse on Warehouses).

The Expiry date you enter below applies only to this bin in the warehouse selected above.

Indicate the original quantity of the stock item assigned to the lot.

Although the lot is created with no stock quantity on hand, you need to enter a quantity in this field if you want to be able to process a credit note against the lot, based on the credit note quantity entered.

For example;

You are using the Sales Order Entry program to generate a credit note for a lot traceable item. The credit note is for a quantity of 10 and is not linked to the original invoice.

When you create a new lot number for the credit note, you need to enter the full credit note quantity in this field (i.e. 10 in this example). If you enter any quantity less than 10, you will not be able to credit the full credit note quantity (i.e. 10) against this lot.

Indicate the expiry date of the lot.

This defaults to 00/00/00. If you are depleting lots manually, then a lot with an expiry date of 00/00/00 never expires.

	The expiry date applies only to the lot/bin number combination selected when using multiple bins (Inventory Setup).

The order in which lots are depleted is determined as follows when the option: Automatic depletion of lots by Expiry date (Inventory Setup) is selected:
