Introduction

Batch controlled products are those products which have a shelf life. For example, all pharmaceutical and food & beverage products are batch tracked.  On receipt of these goods, batch information needs to be entered and can include date of manufacture, expiry date, date when this batch of products was received, price etc.

Whenever these products are received in the store, it is mandatory to allocate a batch number. You can either allocate one single batch to all the products received in the transaction OR you can allocate as many batches as per the information on the receipt document.
