Hi Ahmed Sobhi,

Please check these steps that you have done exactly like this;

For that you have to do five important steps or features you have to know OK.

1) Batch number assignment: We use this function to assign a batch with a number that uniquely identifies it OK.

2) Batch Specf: To describe each batch uniquely using like Characteristics and characteristic The values. are allocated in the material master.

3) Batch status management: To indicate weather a batch is usable or unusable: We can set (a) Manually in the batch master record or at goods receipt and (b) Automatically in the usage dissension in quality management.

4) Batch Determination: We can use this function for various criteria to search for batches that are in stock (a) movement type: When posting goods issues (b) When combining suitable components for order types.

5) Where used list: The batch where used list shows the path of the batch from its procurement to its delivery to the customer.

6) Active Ingredient Management: This function is to administrate and process materials with active ingredients that are to be handled in batches OK.

Condition types: Say for x material if we want to determine the batch at the movement type/ plant/order type.

Access Sequence: It will checks weather the batch determination is done with movement type/ plant/ material &

order type/ plant/ material.

Strategy type: We will assign here condition type and Access sequence and as well we have to maintain Class type: 023

sort sequence, batch split

Batch Search Procedure: Here we will define the search procedure and using the condition type here OK.

Batch Search Procedure Allocation and Check Activation: Here we will assign the search procedure to the movement types and for order types as well

HERE THE BELOW FOLLOWING DATA WILL GIVE YOU RIGHT UNDERSTANDING OK:

a) It will looks for the search procedures.

b) It searches through the strategy types in the search procedures for a valid search strategy.

c) Characteristics from the selection class of the search strategy looks for batches with suitable specifications.

d) Then it will looks for weather the batches are available.

e) It sorts the batches that are available according to the sort rule from the search strategy.
