Product Traceability

Management of tracked products or batches and their components.

The traceability function of a product involves associating a unique serial number with each available element related to the product. This tracking feature is indicated by the presence of a barcode icon at the top right

To indicate that a product is tracked, simply check the "Tracked" box in the product properties tab.

Immediately afterward, a pop-up window appears, allowing you to enter serial numbers.

1 Product (total number found in warehouses) 

2 Warehouse. In parentheses, the number of products in stock in that specific warehouse is displayed. By clicking on each warehouse individually, the corresponding serial numbers are entered.

3 Space for entering the serial number. There will be as many rows as there are products in stock in the selected warehouse.

5 Save button. Press the button to save the serial numbers entered so far, then click "Save" in the product properties tab to ensure they are actually stored in the database. Subsequently, a new "Traceability" tab will appear, allowing you to manage (insert, modify, and delete) the product serial numbers.

 

The input process is optimized for use with barcode scanners: when a code is scanned, the next input field is automatically highlighted, so there's no need to manually navigate with the mouse or keyboard.
The paste input method from a file is also designed for barcode scanners: some models offer a "batch update" mode, allowing all stored codes to be transferred at once. It is not necessary to fill in all input fields at once.

Traceability in Picking Lists

Traced products can be selected during the production phase. In the picking lists, there will be a "Traced" column showing both the tracked and available batches, similar to what appears in a goods receipt document. Clicking on the displayed number will open a popup, allowing you to add new batches to the item without leaving the page to modify the product.
