Lot Traceability

Overview

Lot Movement / Traceability lists every lot and serial number you have bought, with where it is now and what has happened to it. Use it to answer questions like Do we still have serial 00000005? or Which customer did this unit go to? Open Inventory > Lot Traceability.

Lot Movement / Traceability page on the All filter, listing every lot and serial number with item, brand, status, on-hand quantity, location, and whether it is serialized

Type in Search lot / serial number at the top to go straight to one unit or lot — for example a serial number a customer reads out from a product they bought.

Filters

The buttons next to the search box narrow the list by status. The one you are on is blue.

The List

ColumnWhat it shows
Lot / Serial #For a serialized product, its serial number, for example 00000008. For a product not tracked by serial, a View history link instead. Click either to see that stock's history
Item / BrandThe product and its brand
StatusWhere it stands now — Available, On Delivery Challan, or Sold
On HandHow many are physically with you. It is 0 for anything sold or out on a challan
LocationWhere it is, for example Main or trichy
SerializedYes if each unit has its own serial number (one row per unit, On Hand 1 or 0), No if not (one row per product at each location, with the full quantity)

The list shows 50 rows per page; change this at Rows per page and use the arrows at the bottom to move between pages, or jump to the first or last page.

In Stock + DC

Lot Traceability on the In Stock + DC filter, showing available stock and units on delivery challan

Everything that is still yours, wherever it is. The count at the bottom is Available plus On Delivery Challan — in the example, 19 + 2 = 21.

Available

Lot Traceability on the Available filter, showing only stock on hand at Main and trichy

Only stock that is on hand and ready to sell, at every location. Non-serialized products show one row per location — for example non-producy-1 with 91 at Main and 1 at trichy.

On Delivery Challan

Lot Traceability on the On Delivery Challan filter, showing two serial numbers with zero on hand

Units that have left on a delivery challan but have not been invoiced. On Hand is 0, because the goods are with the customer or dealer, but they are still your stock.

Note: To see the challan these units went out on, use the DC Stock view on Inventory > Stocks, or Sales > Delivery Challans.

Sold

Lot Traceability on the Sold filter, showing sold serial numbers and a non-serialized product sold at trichy

Units that have been invoiced. Click a serial number, or View history, to trace where it went.

Tip: When a customer brings a product back for warranty or service, search its serial number here first — you can see straight away whether it was sold by you and from which location.
