The Lot Balances list view displays all inventory lots in NorthScope with their corresponding properties. Inventory lots are composed of the unique combination of Item, Site, Production Batch, Warehouse Lot and Owner.  

(lightbulb) This list view also contains columns for each Attribute that is set up for the 'Items' attribute type, 'Production Batches' attribute type, and the 'Warehouse Lots' attribute type. Additionally, this list view also contains columns for each Lot Certification with a certification 'Type' of "Item & Site". Item attributes, Attributes and Lot Certifications are not automatically included in the default view. Because these attributes and lot certifications are user defined, they are not included in the help documentation.

Available

 This can be edited when units or weight for an item on an inventory transaction has been entered or units or weight for an item on a sales order has been committed or allocated. This is a calculated field and not stored in the database. The Available balance is calculated as:

[On Hand] - [On Hold (-)] + [Committed (+)] - [Committed (-)] + [Allocated (+)]- [Allocated (-)] [Quoted (-)]

Note: Each of the Inventory Transactions and Sales Quote transactions can be conditionally included/excluded from the Available balances based on the "Include open ### transactions in Available balances" Inventory Preference. If the preference is set to "Yes", Inventory Transactions will be included in Committed and Allocated balances, and Quotes will be included in the Quoted balances and used to update the Available balances. If they are set to "No", they will not be included in Committed, Allocated and Quoted balances, so they will not update Available balances.

Additionally, for Production Order Outputs/Inputs and unreceived Purchase Order quantities, these can be conditionally included/excluded from the Available balances based on the "First status to include ##### in Available balances" Inventory Preferences. If the transaction is set to a status equal to or greater than the Preference value, and is not in a status of Closed and not set to "Do Not Include", they will be used to update the Available balances, otherwise if the status is set to a value less than the Preference value, they will not be used to update Available balances.
