Lot Number Generation Mode

Lot Number Generation Mode defines the format for assigning lot numbers to inventory that requires such identification. Lot numbers are generated using a predefined template and applied to inventory packs at the time of creation. These are the options available:

  • Production order (this is the default)
  • Production order + shift
  • Production order + day
  • Production order + day + shift
  • Production order + scrap
  • Production order + shift + scrap
  • Production order + day + scrap
  • Production order + day + shift + scrap
  • User defined

For example, a production order with these values:

  • Production order = 509883
  • Date = 20220620
  • Shift start time = 0630

This table lists generated lot numbers based on each configuration option:
