Assigning Items to Multiple Locations and Lots

If you work in an inventory environment, you must assign items to a storage location at the time of receipt. The system assigns an item to its primary location unless you specify otherwise. If a receipt quantity exceeds the limit for a location, you can assign the items to multiple locations. For example, if you receive 100 pens, you can assign 50 to one location and 50 to another location.

You can assign a lot number to each order that you receive. You can also assign multiple lots to an order. For example, if you receive a large quantity of batteries, you can assign them all to one lot or you can assign them to different lots based on their expiration dates.
