## How to Generate Lot/ Batch Numbers for Multiple Items Simultaneously?

In this tutorial, we will learn how to **generate Lot (Batch) Numbers** for selected items as well as for items that **do not currently have any lot assigned** in **Logic ERP**. This feature helps ensure accurate lot-wise inventory tracking across godowns.

***

### Open Generate Lot Numbers Module

* Navigate to the **Main Menu**
* Open the **Inventory** module
* Click on **Generate Lot Numbers**

***

### Understand Lot Creation Options

Lot numbers can be created in two ways:

* **Directly during Purchase Voucher entry**, or
* From the **Generate Lot Numbers** window (covered in this tutorial)

***

### Create Lot for Selected Items

* Enter the **Lot / Batch Number**

### Auto-Generate Lots for Items Without Lot

* Use the option **Generate Lot for Items Without Lot**
* This option:
  * Automatically creates lot numbers
  * Does **not require manual item or sale order selection**

* Open a **Purchase Voucher**
* Create a new purchase entry for the item whose lot was generated
* Observe that:
  * The **Lot Selection window** automatically displays the newly created lot
  * The lot is shown under the **specified Godown**
