Business value:
Businesses can easily move the inventory they track with serial and batch numbers into Business Central.
Feature details:
As the flow of goods in today's supply chain becomes more complex, keeping track of items is increasingly important for businesses. For example, monitoring an item's transaction flow is a legal requirement in the medical and chemical supply industries. Other businesses might want to monitor products with warranties or expiration dates for customer service reasons.
In this release wave, we've simplified the first steps, such as creating opening balances for items where item tracking is required. Because you can choose different warehouse configurations, there are two new options:
- You can enable specific batches on the Item Journal page to let people enter serial, lot, and package data directly on journal lines.
- For locations where the Directed Put-away and Pick toggle is turned on, you can use the Warehouse Physical Inventory Journal page to make all item tracking fields available. The fields that are available now include the Warranty Date and Expiration Date fields.
Demo:
Item journal
- Search for the Item Journals page, and then choose the related link.

- Fill in the fields on the item journal line as necessary. Notice that the Lot No., Serial No., Expiration Date, Warranty Date, and Package No. fields are available (if the feature is enabled).

- You can compare two batches, one with Item Tracking on Lines and one without. You will be able to see different fields.
