When you order items it is useful to trace each lot. You can manage quantities and expiration dates in this way. 


Users can also add and edit comments on lots to provide notes on quality assessments for the reagents used in the lab. User and date stamps are also stored each time a unit is removed to give some view on the product usage rhythm. 

 Click on this icon on the left part of the record data you wish to list and manage the corresponding lots. Lots can be searched for by original or LabCollector assigned- barcodes. 


Note

Lots can only be edited/removed following the rules chosen in Reagents & Supplies preferences.

Lots must have original barcodes entered for a search on the original barcode to work.



You have the ability to add a comment in the "current active lots" section for any record inside R&S. (See screenshot below).





Lot management is linked to the alerts system. See the chapter on section 4.2.


For additional information, please see the KB: lot management and KB:  for lot disposal.



New! In Reagents&Supplies model you have specific status that you can select when you create a lot. For instance: i) On Hold (Quarantine); ii) Reserved; iii) In Production.
