How to Set Up An Item for Batch Tracking
Why Use This Function:
Not all items are managed in batches, so you must first set up an item to enable Batch Tracking. This tells the system to expect batch numbers and other tracking details during transactions.
💡Please Note: Without this setup, batch information cannot be recorded, which can lead to stock control errors, inability to trace or recall specific batches, and potential legal or safety risks. Proper Batch Tracking is critical for medicines, medical devices, and other healthcare products where Patient safety and audit readiness are non-negotiable.
