SERIAL/LOT ASSIGNMENT

Use this subtask to enter and assign new serial and lot numbers. If only serial or lot tracking is required, the screen will have only one column (either Serial Number or Lot Number as required). If both serial and lot tracking are required, both fields will be displayed.

This subtask is required only if serial/lot tracking is enabled (in the Serial/Lot Settings screen) and the part/project or part master requires serial/lot tracking (i.e., the Serial and/or Lot checkboxes are selected in the Tracking Required group box in the Maintain Parts screen in Product Definition). The Serial/Lot Assignment subtask will be displayed for the following transactions: Miscellaneous Receipts, Inventory Issues (negative issues only), Quantity Adjustments (positive adjustments only), Scrap Adjustments (positive adjustments only), Inventory Transfers (only if the To part/project requires some tracking, but the From part/project requires No tracking or if both the From and To side requires tracking, but the To side requires more tracking), and Enter Physical Counts (only if Actual Count is greater than Pre-Count).
