Batch Tracking

Batch Tracking distinguishes stock of the same product by batch. It is especially useful when traceability is needed, for example in food or pharmaceuticals.

Not every product needs batch tracking.

Enabling tracking

Enable «Enable Batch Tracking» and use the appropriate batch-tracking configuration for the product.

Receipts and releases

When receiving a batch-tracked product, specify its batch before posting the receipt.

If obtaining the supplier's batch number is impractical, the product type offers the option «Create batch automatically upon receipt or production». It creates a batch when goods are received or produced.

For releases, specify the batch from which the units are taken. Movements between locations must retain the relevant batch identification.

Checking stock by batch

In Warehouse Stock, you can filter or group information by batch. To analyze movements over a period, use Warehouse Movements.
