Using the WIP Lot Trace module, you can:
Trace lot and serial numbers of WIP material throughout the manufacturing process, including WIP material processed by multiple subcontractors.
Create flexible registrations to activate or deactivate WIP lot/serial tracking for all or specific BOMs, routing codes, parent items, component item, routings, and routing operations.
Maintain complete WIP tracing history.
Generate reports providing visibility of WIP lot/serial numbers and quantities.
Optionally generate and assign WIP lot/serial numbers automatically using Number Range Management (NRM) features.
Control the lot sizes for all traced material.
Control combining and splitting of lot and component material being traced.
Control the WIP inventory quantity-on-hand balances for WIP material lot/serials being traced.
Trace component material lots consumed at any operation in a routing to WIP or finished material lots.
Trace WIP material lots from operation to operation.
Renumber lot/serials from one operation to the next, or retain the same numbers throughout all operations.
Determine the constituent WIP or component material lots of finished or WIP material lots.
Maintain up‑to‑date cumulative scrapped, consumed, and produced quantities for traced WIP lot/serials at the operation level.
Maintain quantity-on-hand balances at the operation level for traced WIP lot/serials.
