Using NCR for Handling Units in Quarantine

The quarantine inventory can be managed using handling units. If a handling unit is linked to an NCR, LN splits the NCR based on the handling units and not on the basis of lots and serials.

A handling unit can be linked to an NCR only if the if the stock point details (serials, lot, quantity etc.) are the same.
