Answer / kodava

Batch is used when the material is perishable and has a shelf life period or its a legal requirement in pharma/food processing industry where composition of material would be maintained uniform across a batch. You have to activate batch classification in classification tab of material master where you can define characteristics which distinguishes the batch, which can later be used to search a batch on FIFO or LIFO. You need to activate it for plant and the indicator is available in Purchasing tab and couple of other tabs. If you need system to search batches while issuing the material you need to define batch search strategy.

ordered a material in different batches like the delivery
dates are different for the same material to supply, it is
batch management.

is ordered by Prodn control people based on prodn
requirement and at the time of creation of MRP if they
select batch , it will consider the same for future
processing.
