The Find Lots page allows users to directly allocate lots to inventory transactions. Allocated lots added from here are added as line item(s) to the transaction.

(lightbulb) This inquiry also contains columns for each Attribute that is set up for the 'Warehouse Lots' attribute type.  Because these are user defined, they are not included in the default view but can be added a saved layout. Attributes are not included in the help documentation.
