Food lots, warehouse and shipping

In food the lot, the warehouse location and the shipment share one record. Weighing is written on the lot when the plant weighs. This is not a project list.

A warehouse rack of plain food cases with unreadable lot marks

In food the record links a lot from the line to a warehouse location and a shipment. When the lot sits in one book, the case on another rack and the shipment on a separate list, you cannot tell which lot left.

The line writes the lot number on the work order. When the plant weighs, the fill or the case weight is added to that lot line. We do not invent a weight for a product that is not weighed.

The warehouse puts the case in a location. PTS is the identity of the case from the line to that location and the shipment. Shipping keeps the lot and the load on the same record. WMS and ERP update stock with that lot.

When the shipment needs a document, the e-document binds to that shipment. We do not write the name of a food standard on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the lot and the case the same thing?

The lot is the production record. The case is the package that came from that lot. The shipment carries the case and shows the lot.

Do you write a food certificate?

No. The document is the e-invoice or e-document flow attached when the shipment needs one. We do not invent another document name.
