Hello @JoannaQiu 

I would use Batch Determination in Sales and Distribution It can be customized so that only specific batches are allocated for specific customers. Also batch determination can check if manually entered batches comply with the strategy - Checking Manually Specified Batches
Notice the following points:

• Only one batch can be specified in a sales order; there are no batch splits there. If you want to determine multiple batches for an item, you need to determine them in deliveries
• MRP doesn't work on batch level.
• Batch determination strategy relies heavily on batch classification. So you need to factor that into your implementation.
