To manually register lot or serial numbers for handling units

To manually register lot or serial numbers for handling units:

In the Compose Handling Units (whwmd5130m100) session, the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session, and the Handling Unit Tree, select the relevant handling unit and click Stock Point Details on the toolbar.
In the Handling Unit Stock Point Details (whwmd5136m000) session, click Generate Lot Codes or Generate Serials to register lot or serial numbers for the lot or serialized items of the handling unit.

If no lot or serial numbers are present on the associated line before registering the lot or serial numbers for the handling units, LN updates lot or serial numbers on the associated line.

Using the Split commands

If lot or serial numbers are present on the associated line before registration for the handling unit is to take place, the Generate Lot Codes and Generate Serials commands are not displayed. In such cases, you must use the Split Line for Serials and Split Line for Lots options and manually enter a lot or serial number for each item individually.

Note: For FIFO or LIFO items, register the lot or serial numbers for the handling units and not for the associated line. You can then use the Generate Serials or Generate Lot Codes options to register the lot or serial numbers simultaneously, which takes less time than registration through the Split Line for Serials or Split Line for Lots options.

Note

Lot and serial registration is not allowed for handling units with the Partially Allocated status. LN consumes lot and serial numbers in alphabetic order when releasing outbound advice or confirming picking lists.
