Batch inventory feature in ERPNext allows you to group multiple units of an item,
|
|
and assign them a unique value/number/tag called Batch No.
|
|
|
|
The practise of stocking based on batch is mainly followed in the pharmaceutical industry.
|
|
Medicines/drugs produced in a particular batched is assigned a unique id.
|
|
This helps them updating and tracking manufacturing and expiry date for all the units produced under specific batch.
|
|
|
|
> Note: To set item as a batch item, "Has Batch No" field should be updated as Yes in the Item master.
|
|
|
|
On every stock transaction (Purchase Receipt, Delivery Note, POS Invoice) made for batch item,
|
|
you should provide item's Batch No. To create new Batch No. master for an item, go to:
|
|
|
|
> Stock > Setup > Batch > New
|
|
|
|
Batch master is created before creation of Purchase Receipt.
|
|
Hence eveytime there is Purchase Receipt or Production entry being made for a batch item,
|
|
you will first create its Batch No, and then select it in Purcase order or Production Entry.

|
|
> Note: In stock transactions, Batch IDs will be filtered based on Item Code, Warehouse,
|
|
Batch Expiry Date (compared with Posting date of a transaction) and Actual Qty in Warehouse.
|
|
While searching for Batch ID without value in Warehouse field, then Actual Qty filter won't be applied.
