Use this subtask to specify the shelf life information for this part. A shelf life indicates when the part becomes dated and unusable. You can use the shelf-life number to identify when a serialized or lot tracked part becomes unusable if shelf-life is calculated based on receipt date (as defined on the Configure Serial/Lot Settings screen).
Choose one of the following options to indicate whether the shelf life expiration date is extendable, or if the shelf life does not apply:
None — Select this option to indicate that shelf life functionality does not apply.
Extendable — Select this option to indicate that the shelf life of the part can be revised to a new expiration date, within certain limits specified.
Non-extendable — Select this option to indicate that the shelf life of the part cannot be revised once value has been entered.
Enter the number of calendar days by when the serial/lot part must be used.
Select this check box to allow an extendable serial/lot part to be used beyond its expiration date.
Enter the number of days past expiration that the serial/lot part can be used.
Enter the number of days prior to expiration that the serial/lot part should begin re-evaluation.
Enter the number of times the shelf life expiration date can be modified.
