Setting Lot/Serial Number Tracking

You are here:

There are several possible ways to configure item tracking in NAV. Depending on the configuration used the lot/serial numbers are handled differently by NAV and the Count Module:

  • Non Specific – Optional item tracking where you don’t need the lot/serial number on a transactions.
  • Item Tracking with bins not mandatory – where you don’t have bins or locations set up but you have items being tracked by lot or serial number.
  • Non-warehouse item tracking with bins mandatory
  • Warehouse item tracking with bins mandatory.
  • Warehouse item tracking using advanced warehousing.

To generate counts sheets with separate lines for each item being tracked tracking if:

  • Item tracking is enabled, and bins are not mandatory or,
    • i.e. you have 10 items in stock and you have 3 bins that the item could be stored in, you’d need to generate 30 possible line combinations for each item.
  • Warehouse item tracking is enabled with bins mandatory.

    We have just installed Advanced Inventory count. We are using D365BC and we have items with item tracking enabled for serial numbers and bin required. The count is not listing the serial# in the count. Did I miss something in the setup?

      Hello Mike,

      The item tracking information will be in a textbox at the bottom of the screen.

      If this is hidden, please submit a request to [email protected] and we can help you make this field visible.

      Thank you,
