Creating batch and serial numbers
There are four ways to create batch and serial numbers:
- During maintenance Lager/Maintenance/Batch/Serial number
- In the product overview Lager/Products/Batch/Serial numbers
- Directly on a purchase order. Either on the lines or by linking from the lines.
- Directly on the Vendor/Purchase order purchase lines and on the Purchase line in the batch/serial number field.
- When linking from the Vendor/Purchase order/Purchase lines and the Batch/serial numbers menu
1) During maintenance, the batch/serial number list
- Go to Lager/Maintenance/Batch/Serial numbers
- Create all the batch/serial numbers you need. This applies to both sales and purchasing.
- A new line is created with F2 or by selecting the Add record button on the ribbon.
Tip. If you need to create many batch numbers, these can be imported from a list, e.g. Excel. Either by using the import function or copy/paste.
Principle 1: Procurement and sales are used
- Fill in the following fields: Item number and Number. The starting number is obtained through the purchase of the item. Batch/serial number is entered in the Number field.
- The Quantity and Remaining quantity fields are automatically filled in based on the registered quantity for a purchase and a later sale.
Principle 2: No purchasing is used, only sales
- Fill in the following fields: Item number, Start quantity and Number. The start quantity is the quantity of items to be registered with the batch/serial number entered in the Number field.
- The Quantity and Remaining Quantity fields are automatically populated based on the value in the field Start count

- On purchase lines with item numbers to which a batch number must be linked, the Batch/serialr field is filled in directly on the line.
If the batch number already exists, the item is linked to this batch. If the batch number does not exist, it is created in the batch overview.
