Editing Lot Number Attributes After Posting

| 08/01/2011 | 6 Comments

Recently, I had seen a request from one of our clients who had asked us if the lot number attributes can be edited after the receiving transactions have been posted. This could be needed when there was an issue with the expiry date (or) the manufacturing date (or) any of the other attributes which are tracked for the specific lot.

There is an out of the box functionality for this purpose. We can use the Edit Lot Number Attributes window which opens from Microsoft Dynamics GP menu >> Utilities >> Inventory >> Edit Lot Number Attributes.

The user can enter the Item Number and the Lot Number and edit any of the attributes that have been defined for the specific lot, even after the document has been posted.

Hope this is helpful to the community…

Until next post!

    How do you keep from having to re-ented the date numerous times if the same lot number is in multiple sites?  If anyone could help me (and my fingers) out I would appreciate it.

      You would need to customize the same!

        Will a customization also work for when a lot number is sold and then comes back as a return?  Will GP auto-populate the correct expiration date in the field so that it can be seen in lot number inquiry screen without having to drill down with the blue arrow?

          Unfortunately, that does not work!
