"Enable Lot Tracking for an Existing Item".

Hello,

 

I’m reaching out to help resolve an issue we’re experiencing with when trying to add lot tracking to an existing item. The below steps were followed:

 

Steps to Enable Lot Tracking for an Existing Item:

  1. Verify and Remove Inventory:
    • Go to Inventory > Transactions > Transaction Entry.
    • Remove all on-hand quantities via an inventory adjustment (decrease).
    • Make sure this is done across all sites/locations.
  2. Close Transactions:
    • Ensure there are no open sales orders, purchase orders, or other transactions involving the item.
    • Run the Inventory Reconcile Utility (optional but recommended) to ensure data integrity.
  3. Change Item Tracking Options:
    • Go to Inventory > Cards > Item.
    • Select the item, then click the Options button.
    • Set the Tracking Option to “Lot Number” and save the changes.
  4. Re-add Inventory (if needed):
    • Use an inventory adjustment to re-enter the item with lot numbers.

 

The part in question, 001-009070-1, does currently show quantities as zero:

 

 

But when the item card is accessed, the options screen has the tracking option grayed out:

 

 

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
