Receiving Products with Lots and Expirations

During the receiving process, you can add lot and expiration dates to products, as long as Lot & Expiration Date tracking is enabled for that SKU. Below are the steps on how to add lot and expiration information to a prioduct during the receiving process.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Each location can only have one lot code or expiration date associated with it per SKU. If you try to receive a different lot into a lcoation that already has inventory for another lot you will recieve an error, i.e., Cannot use Lot Test 2 for SKU glass-globe and location A-01-100 since there's still inventory with lot Test 3. This is a restriction to prevent errors in picking. 

How to Receive Products with Lots 

1. Go to the Purchase Orders page and select the PO you would like to receive.
2. Click on Receiving Page button in the top right hand corner.  
3. Scan the SKU barcode or click on Accepted column for that product.
4. This will open the window to Select the Lot or Add a New Lot, add the quantity being received and select/scan the location you are receiving into.

NOTE: If you forgot to enable the Needs Lot Tracking setting before processing a purchase order, selecting the Activate Lot link will open the product details page to enable the Needs Lot Tracking setting.
