🧾 Introduction
Efficient SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) management is critical to:
📦 Controlling inventory.
🧮 Optimizing warehouse space.
🚚 Streamlining supply chain operations.
Logic ERP offers a robust framework for managing inventory at various levels—ranging from fixed item codes to detailed carton-level tracking📦. In this tutorial, we will walk through the different types of SKU management supported in Logic ERP, along with how each can be implemented and monitored using real-time reports🔍.
🔹 1. Fixed Item Code Management
✔️ Overview:
This method is ideal for businesses where each product has a consistent SKU or item code across all transactions📅, regardless of purchase or sale instances.
📌 Implementation Steps:
Go to Purchase Entry.
Select the item using its unique item code🏷️.
Enter quantity🔢, purchase rate💰, and other necessary details.
💾Save the entry.
✅This setup ensures that:
All stock entries (even on different dates or from different suppliers) are consolidated.
Inventory tracking is simplified and consistent.
📊 Reporting:
Use the Item Code Stock Status Report🧾 to view overall stock by item code, including quantity available, issued, and balance.
🔹 2. Lot/Batch-Wise Inventory Management
✔️ Overview:
Used when tracking by production batch or expiry date is crucial (e.g., textiles🧵, pharmaceuticals💊, chemicals).
📌 Implementation Steps:
In the Purchase Entry, choose to create a new batch or lot for the item.
Each transaction row will be assigned a distinct lot code, even for the same item.
The system can automatically generate🔄 these lot codes or allow manual entry✍️.
✅Benefits:
Helps track quality, expiry, or supplier-specific information.
Facilitates batch recalls or quality control checks.
📊 Reporting:
The Lot Code Wise Stock Report🧾 gives detailed visibility of stock levels per batch, including date of entry and supplier.
🔹 3. Unique Piece-Wise Tracking with Barcode
✔️ Overview:
Recommended for industries where every single unit must be tracked individually (e.g., electronics📱, apparel👗, jewelry💍).
📌 Implementation Steps:
During Purchase Entry, enable Piece-Wise Tracking.
Logic ERP generates a unique barcode or piece code for each item unit.
Barcodes can be printed🖨️ for physical tagging and used for dispatch, stock check, and return.
✅Benefits:
Facilitates individual product traceability.
Reduces human error during dispatch and inventory counting.
📊 Reporting:
The Piece Code Inventory Report🧾 displays individual units, their transaction history, and current status.
🔹 4. Set-Wise Inventory Management
✔️ Overview:
Useful for creating product bundles or combos (e.g., gift sets🎁, kits🧰).
📌 Implementation Steps:
Go to Set Creation Module.
Right-click➡️ and select Create New Set.
Define Set Name, add items🔢 with their respective quantities.
Save the set to generate a unique Set Code.
🎯Use Case:
Ideal for promotions or sales where multiple items are sold together.
Quickens the dispatch🛒 process through single-scan processing.
📊 Reporting:
The Set-Wise Stock Report🧾 shows the items included in each set and their stock levels.
🔹 5. Carton-Wise Inventory Management
✔️ Overview:
Best for bulk packaging and logistics tracking (especially for exports📦 or warehouse management📍).
📌 Implementation Steps:
After creating sets, go to Carton Management.
Select➡️ Create Carton.
Assign sets to a carton. The system will generate a unique Carton Code for each.
The inventory is now treated as reserved and moved to carton stock📦.
✅Benefits:
Enhances visibility into packaged inventory.
Improves coordination between warehouse and dispatch teams.
📊 Reporting:
The Carton Wise Stock Report🧾 shows:
📦Total cartons in stock.
✅Cartons allocated vs. available.
🧾Individual set codes within each carton.
📌 Real-Life Example for Clarification:
Let’s say you purchase 10 shirts👕 with the same design but different colors on different dates📅. You can manage them as:
🎯Item Code
All 10 shirts tracked under a single item code
SHIRT001
🧬Lot-Wise
Track based on purchase date or supplier
LOT-APR10, LOT-APR15
🧾Piece-Wise
Assign a unique code to each shirt
SH001, SH002, ..., SH010
🧺Set-Wise
Combine a shirt, jeans, and belt into a set
SET-CASUAL01
📦Carton-Wise
Pack 5 sets into one carton for dispatch
CRT-EXP01
