The list of potential Statuses changes depending on the transaction type.  The Statuses that apply to transactions in this List View include:

Recurring: This status is used to signify a "source" production order that can be cloned to make new Production Orders.  It cannot be used to record production and are never included in the Available Balance calculations. While in the Status of 'Recurring', all editable fields are open for edit.

New: This is the default Status for all new Transactions. While in the Status of 'New' transactions are considered open and all editable fields are open for edit, no posting or approval validations are performed, GL Dates are not assigned, and journal entries are not created. If the transaction was moved back from Approved to New, the GL Date will be assigned and a Journal Entry will exist.

This field is disabled for items where the 'Lot Tracked' field is set to "No". If enabled, this field is always editable while the transaction is in a status of 'Open' or 'Released'. The value entered in this field will auto-populate on the associated line item on a recorded production transaction.

A Production Batch is the identifier that contains all the Traceability information (Production Batch Properties and Attributes) for Lot Tracked Items. This number stays attached to the product, even if it is transferred to another Site. Production Batch is one of the 5 components that make up a unique Inventory Lot and it is required when entering a transaction line for a Lot Tracked Item. This value will be blank and/or disabled for all non-Lot Tracked items on screens that include a Production Batch field.

An Inventory Lot is the most granular level that item balances (quantities of Units and/or Weight) are stored within NorthScope. Inventory Lots are created for all Inventory Items assigned an Item Type of “Inventory', regardless of whether the Item is Lot Tracked (i.e., balances are maintained by Production Batch) or the Site containing the product is 'Warehouse Lot' tracked or not. 

An Inventory Lot is unique by combination of:

• Item: The Item ID (required for all Inventory Lots)
• Site: The Site/Warehouse that contains the inventory (required for all Inventory Lots)
• Production Batch: The date code or other traceability reference that stays with product and never changes. It is required for Items with a 'Lot Tracked' property of "Yes" and will be blank for Items with a 'Lot Tracked' property of "No"
• Warehouse Lot: The identifier or location within a Site/Warehouse, this is most typically used for 3rd party distribution sites. It is required for 'Inventory Lots' in a Warehouse Lot tracked Site and will be blank for 'Inventory Lots' in a non Warehouse Lot tracked Site. This has nothing to do with whether the Item is 'Lot Tracked' or not.

Before an item is selected, this field will default as blank and the lookup will not include any values. Once an item is selected, this field will default from the 'Inventory Unit UOM' field set up on the 'Properties' tab of the Item record view. This field will be disabled if the item is managed by 'Weight Only'. This field can always be edited until the transaction is in a status of 'Closed'.

The lookup contains the current assigned value and a list of all 'Active' Unit UOMs on the selected Item's UOM Schedule.

This field is enabled for Sites where the 'Warehouse Lot Tracked' field is set to "Yes - Allow multiple items in single lots" or "Yes - Limit Warehouse Lots to single items". This field is disabled for Sites where the 'Warehouse Lot Tracked' field is set to "No". If enabled, this field is always editable until the transaction is in a status of 'Closed'. The value entered in this field will auto-populate on the associated line item on a recorded production transaction.

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.

An Inventory Lot is the most granular level that item balances (quantities of Units and/or Weight) are stored within NorthScope. Inventory Lots are created for all Inventory Items assigned an Item Type of “Inventory', regardless of whether the Item is Lot Tracked (i.e., balances are maintained by Production Batch) or the Site containing the product is 'Warehouse Lot' tracked or not. 

An Inventory Lot is unique by combination of:

• Item: The Item ID (required for all Inventory Lots)
• Site: The Site/Warehouse that contains the inventory (required for all Inventory Lots)
• Production Batch: The date code or other traceability reference that stays with product and never changes. It is required for Items with a 'Lot Tracked' property of "Yes" and will be blank for Items with a 'Lot Tracked' property of "No"
• Warehouse Lot: The identifier or location within a Site/Warehouse, this is most typically used for 3rd party distribution sites.

• Owner: Identifies who owns the product. This is required for all Inventory Lots.

Database Field: ERPx_IMProductionOrderDetail.WarehouseLotID

Identifies the unit of measure that the weight is stored in (Lbs, Kg, Oz, Ton, etc.) for a line item or on the transaction. This is a single-select standard lookup that is required if the item is managed by 'Weight Only' or by 'Units and Weight'. Before an item is selected, this field will default as blank and the lookup will not include any values. Once an item is selected, this field will default from the 'Inventory Weight UOM' field set up on the 'Properties' tab of the Item record view. This field will be disabled if the item is managed by 'Units Only'. This field can always be edited until the transaction is in a status of 'Closed'. 

The lookup contains the current assigned value and a list of all 'Active' Weight UOMs on the selected Item's UOM Schedule.

Database Fields: ERPx_IMUOM.UOMName, ERPX_IMItem.UOMScheduleSK, ERPx_IMProductionOrderDetail.OrderedWeightUOMSK
