## How to Configure Lot Selection in Godown Wise - Stock Transfers?
In this tutorial, we will understand **how lot selection works while making godown-wise stock transfer entries in Logic ERP**.
***
### Access Lot Selection Configuration
* Open the **Configuration** window.
* Navigate to **Other Settings**.
* Locate the **Lot Selection** option.
* This setting controls how the system selects stock lots during a godown-wise stock transfer.
* By default, **Lot Selection** is set to **Manual**.
***
### Lot Selection Mode: Manual (Default)
* Select the **Godown From** and **Godown To**.
* Initiate a **new stock transfer transaction**.
* Enter the item details.
**Result:**
* The **Lot Selection window appears**.
* The system prompts the user to **manually choose the lot** to be transferred.
**Use Case:**
* Suitable when users need **full control** over which lot is selected.
***
### Lot Selection Mode: Auto Pick First Lot (FIFO)
* Open **Configuration → Other Settings**.
* Set **Lot Selection** to **Auto Pick First Lot**.
* Save the configuration.
* Now, create a **new stock transfer voucher** and select the godowns.
* As soon as you select the item, you will see that the lot has been picked on a FIFO basis.
**Result:**
* The system **automatically selects the first-created lot**.
* This follows the **FIFO (First In, First Out)** principle.
**Benefit:**
* Ensures **older stock is transferred first**
* Helps maintain proper stock rotation
***
### Lot Selection Mode: Auto Pick Single Lot
* Go back to **Configuration → Other Settings**.
* Select **Auto Pick Single Lot**.
* Save the configuration.
* Initiate a **new stock transfer entry**.
**Result:**
* If **only one lot** is available for an item:
* The system **automatically picks the lot**.
* If **multiple lots** are available:
* The **lot selection window appears**, requiring **manual selection**.
**Benefit:**
* Saves time when only one lot exists
* Maintains control when multiple lots are available
***
### Conclusion
Logic ERP provides **three flexible lot selection methods** for godown-wise stock transfers:
* **Manual** – User selects the lot every time
* **Auto Pick First Lot** – Automatically follows FIFO
* **Auto Pick Single Lot** – Auto-picks only when one lot is available
By choosing the appropriate option, you can balance **automation, accuracy, and control** in your stock transfer process.
