How to allocate serial numbers or lot numbers to items on Sage 300 Order Entry

Steps:

  1. Open Order Entry > O/E Transactions > Shipment Entry.
  2. Enter information for the shipment.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • If you entered an order number and you are shipping all of the items on backorder, click
      Ship All.
    • If you did not enter an order number or you are not shipping all of the items on backorder, specify an inventory location for each serialized or lotted item detail. (Because serial numbers and lot numbers are maintained by location, you must specify a location before you enter a quantity.)
  4. Allocate serial numbers and lot numbers to non-kitting items.
    1. On the Details table, select a detail for a serialized or lotted item, and then click the Qty. Shipped column header.  The Serial/Lot Numbers Allocation screen appears. This screen includes a Serials tab if the item is serialized and/or a Lots tab if the item is lotted.
    2. Allocate serial numbers and lot numbers as required.  The quantity of serial numbers or lot numbers you require appears in the lower left part of the screen. The quantity remaining to be allocated is reduced as you allocate numbers.
      • In the Serial Number list, allocate serial numbers one at a time by manually
        entering them or by using the Finder.
      • On the Serials tab, click Auto-Alloc. to allocate all required serial numbers.
        • Note:
          • By default, serial numbers are allocated starting with the first available
            serial number, but you can specify a different starting number. To do this,
            select the Auto-Allocate From option, and then enter a number in the field.
          • If there are fewer serial numbers available than are required, all available
            serial numbers will be allocated, and a message will notify you that not all
            required serial numbers were allocated.
      • In the Lot Number list, allocate lot numbers one at a time by manually entering
        them or by using the Finder.
      • On the Lots tab, click Auto-Alloc. to allocate all required lot numbers.
        • Note:
          • By default, lot numbers are allocated starting with the first available lot
            number, but you can specify a different starting number. To do this, select
            the Auto-Allocate From option, and then enter a number in the field.
          • If there are fewer lot numbers available than are required, all available lot
            numbers will be allocated, and a message will notify you that not all
            required lot numbers were allocated.
    3. When the quantity of serial numbers and/or lot numbers remaining is zero, click Close to return to the O/E Shipment Entry screen.
  5. Allocate serial numbers and lot numbers to kitting items.
    1. On the Details table, select a detail for a kitting item that includes serialized or lotted
      components.
    2. Click Components.
    3. On the O/E Kitting Components screen that appears, select a serialized or lotted item,
      and then click the Qty. Shipped column header.  The Serial/Lot Numbers Allocation screen appears.
    4. Allocate serial numbers and lot numbers as required.  The quantity of serial numbers or lot numbers you require appears in the lower left part of the screen. The quantity remaining to be allocated is reduced as you allocate numbers.
    5. Click Close to return to the O/E Kitting Components screen.
    6. Click Close to return to the O/E Shipment Entry screen.
