serial number

[Former Member]

Hi gurus,

my requirement is when we do gr for some material i will take inside RTP( Returnable Transport Packaging) material also..i need to give serial numbers for these RTP material....Is that possible.?

Eg : Gas Cylinder.. I will have two matl code. One GAS one CYLINDER ( RTP)

So in PO i will mention GAS . While receipt i will get many cylinders filled with GAS. These cylinders have numbers on them. That numbers i need to capture so that when i send back to vendor i send the first received cylinders bcos penalty is applicable if that cylinder is kept more than 15 days..

Can anybody help please

regards,

Hi ,

As I understand , You need to manage CYLINDER . I suggest that ; Create one material for CYLINDER with batch management . And every gr you can take it to storage any process type ( eg .501 ) . System asks you the Batch number every gr . You can use the numbers on the cylinders for batch number .

I hope its helpful ..

And also you can enter PO number in gr header .

Hi,

Yes you can use the same batch number over and over again.

I think it was a good suggestion, much simpler than maintaining serial numbers etc.
