Assigning lot numbers to orders during shipping

If Force Serial/Lot Input in SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders-Entry Settings is selected, you must specify lot numbers in Sales Order Entry. If lot numbers are not assigned in Sales Order Entry, product is picked without regard to lot numbers. You must then assign the lot numbers during shipping before the order can be invoice processed.

Select Sales > Entry > Shipping Feedback.
Search for the order, and then open the record.
In the Line Items view, open the record for the line that requires lot numbers.

Note: If a line requires lot numbers, Lot is displayed in the Message column in the grid.
In the Lot section, select the lot numbers to assign to the products. You can use one of these methods:
- To automatically select products from the oldest lots, click Oldest. Split across lots? is displayed. If you click Yes, the oldest lot number is assigned. Any remaining quantity is assigned the next oldest lot number. If you click No, the next oldest lot that can cover the entire quantity shipped is used.
- To manually assign lot number, select Assigned for a lot in the grid, and then specify the quantity. Use the lookup to locate a lot number within the grid.
Click Save when the quantity is fully allocated.

If the Quantity to Allocate is not zero, you can decrease the quantity shipped. Click Yes to reduce the shipped quantity to the number of products that have been assigned lot numbers. Click No to assign lot numbers for the remaining products.
On the Shipping Feedback Entry window, select the order and then click Ship/Unship.
