This defaults to "No", is required, and is always editable. The lookup contains the following values:
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 |
