How to: Select from Existing Serial Numbers and Lot Numbers
When you are working with items that require item tracking and you are creating outbound transactions, where the items go out of inventory, you typically need to select the lot or serial numbers from those that already exist in inventory.
The exact rules for handling item tracking numbers across your company are governed by the setup of the Item Tracking Code table.
Note
To handle item tracking numbers in warehouse activities, the item must be set up with SN/Lot Warehouse Tracking, as this dictates the special principles governing serial and lot numbers in the warehouse.
To select from existing serial or lot numbers
