Manual creation of lot cut pieces now available in Product Extended Lot Number Setup

You can now manually create lot cut pieces in Product Extended Lot Number Setup. The pieces of OE Linear Cut type products can then be applied to orders through the auto-assign functionality in Sales Order Entry and Sales Linear Cut Maintenance Entry.

A New button is added to Product Extended Lot Number Setup-Cuts , which displays when the product is set up in Product Setup as an OE Linear Cut product. Clicking New opens a screen where you can specify the number and length of cut pieces to be created. The new records for the created pieces then display in the Cuts grid.

If you manually create a new lot in Product Extended Lot Number Setup, you should enter the available quantity in that lot and manually create cut pieces to match what was entered for the available quantity.

The new cut creation functionality can be used to create lot cut pieces for products that currently exist in inventory. When new cut pieces are created manually in Product Extended Lot Number Setup, the On Hand and Net Available balances in Product Warehouse Product Setup and the available quantity for the lot are not updated.

Note: You can make manual stock adjustments for OE Linear Cut products in Sales Linear Cut Maintenance Entry or Product Adjustment Entry. We recommend that you use Sales Linear Cut Maintenance Entry because it provides greater control over length adjustment to accurately reflect what is in inventory.
