Lot/Location

Select the Lot/Location tab to complete these fields:

Location

Enter the area in the warehouse where you receive inventory. The format of the location is user-defined and you enter the location format for each branch/plant.

Caution: If you have activated the Location Control option in the Branch/Plant Constants program (P41001), you can only complete work orders to locations you have defined in the Location Master program (P4100).

Lot/Serial

Enter a number that identifies a lot or a serial number. A lot is a group of items with similar characteristics.

You can also set the appropriate processing option to use the sales order or work order number as the default value for the lot number on this form.

If you complete an item to an existing lot, the lot expiration and effectivity dates are populated from the lot master record. You can also use the Lot Date Override form exit on Work Order Completion Detail to enter the appropriate lot dates.
