Lots

You can identify and segregate inventory by lots within locations for special lot control or layered costing. This feature enables you to provide unique descriptions, cost information, and expiration dates.

Some companies purchase or manufacture a single item from/in more than one country. In JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system, you can identify and segregate inventory by attaching country of origin to lots. Country of Origin is a code (00/CN) that identifies the country in which the item originates.

The system treats the country of origin as an attribute of the new lot in the similar manner as expiration date, which you can enter during transactions. Therefore, subsequent transactions do not update the country of origin. Updates to the country of origin after the lot has been created must occur from the Lot Master program (P4108).

The Country of Origin affects the following programs:

• Item Master (P4101).

• Item Branch (P41026).

• Lot Master (P4108).

• Inventory Adjustments (P4114).

• Item Reclassifications (P4116).

• Purchase Order Receipts (P4312).

• Supplier Self Service Receipts (P4312S).

• Work Order Completions Matrix Entry (PCW46).

• Work Order Completion Detail (P31114).

• Edit Weigh Tag Master (P31B77).
