Auto Generate Warehouse Lots on Transfer Receipts | Identifies whether or not the Warehouse Lot Numbers are auto-generated for applicable transfer line items. This is only visible for Sites where the 'Warehouse Lot Tracked' property is set to either: "Yes - Allow multiple items in single lots" or "Yes - Limit Warehouse Lots to single items". This value is required if the Site is warehouse lot tracked and there is a value in the "Auto Generate Warehouse Lots By" property. If these conditions are true and the value is missing, the message "Unable to set "Auto Generate Warehouse Lots By" if "Auto Generate Warehouse Lots on Transfer Receipts" is not enabled on Save. When this feature is enabled for the 'To Site' (the receiving Site) on an inventory Transfer transaction, the system will automatically populate the warehouse lot values in the 'To Warehouse Lot' , on Save. The values will be populated as either:
Linked Database Field: ERPx_MFSite.AssignWarehouseLotsOnTransferReceipts This lookup contains options for either "Yes" or "No". |

Site ID | Identifies the unique Site ID (warehouse ID) of the Site the transaction, shipment, item, or lot is associated with. This is a text box that defaults as blank, is required, must be unique, and must be <= 25 characters. If missing, the message "Site ID is required." will be displayed on Save. If not unique the message "Duplicate Site ID's are not allowed." will be displayed on Save. This field is always editable. Sites represent Plants, Warehouses, Distribution Centers, or virtual objects that are used to store and/or maintain perpetual inventory balances. Database Field: ERPx_MFSite.SiteID |

This is a text box that defaults as blank, is required, and must be <= 35 characters. If missing, the message "Site Name is required." will be displayed on Save. This field is always editable. Database Field: ERPx_MFSite.SiteName |

Visible to Logistics | A Yes/No lookup to identify whether or not the site is visible in the "Load Management" functional Area. This defaults to "No", is required, and is always editable.
The list of Sites also exists in the Load Management functional area, allowing users to determine whether or not a Site is available to them for placement on Loads. Because of this, the Site record view Visible to Logistics field corresponds with the Logistics Sites list view Visible to Logistics checkbox. Therefore, if the Site's visibility to logistics is edited from either location, the site will be updated in both locations. Database Field: ERPx_MFSite.IsVisibleToLogistics |
Visible to Sales | A Yes/No lookup to identify whether or not the site is visible for use on Sales Orders, Price Adjustment, and Return transactions. This defaults to "No", is required, and is always editable.

This setting is only applicable for NorthScope installations that are integrated with a Warehouse Management system. Database Field: ERPx_MFSite.IsVisibleToWMS |
Warehouse Lot Tracked | This is a single select lookup to Identify whether or not the Site manages 'Warehouse Lots' and if so, do you allow multiple Item IDs to be stored within the same 'Warehouse Lot'. This defaults to "No", is required, and is always editable. The lookup contains the following values:
If this property is changed from 'No' either of the Yes options on a Site that contains Item/Lot history, a new Warehouse Lot will be auto created (as [SiteID]-Default) and assigned to all Inventory Lots for the Site and the message "The Warehouse Lot ID on all existing transactions for this Site has been updated to SITEID-Default" will be displayed on Save. A Warehouse Lot (aka Storage Lot) is used by 3rd party distribution sites to identify a unique quantity of product they are storing. Unlike a Production Batch number that never changes, Warehouse Lots will change as product is transferred to other Sites and/or transferred into exiting Warehouse Lots within the same Site. The 'Warehouse Lot' is one of the 5 components that make up a unique Inventory Lot and it is required when entering a transaction line on a transaction for a Warehouse Lot Tracked Site. This value will be blank and/or disabled for all non-Warehouse Lot Tracked Sites on screens that include a Warehouse Lot field. Database Field: ERPx_MFSite.IsSiteWarehouseLotTracked |

This value will be combined with the Product Batch Prefix, if entered, to create the Production Batch ID. If no value is entered, this field will display 0 and will assume that users must manually enter the production batch ID. For new sites, this field defaults to 1000 but is always editable.
