How to Use Lot Code Prefix in Purchase?

In this tutorial, we’ll explore how to configure and use Lot Code Prefixes in Logic ERP to accurately scan items during purchase and sales transactions.


Set Lot Code Prefix in Barcode Label Printing

  • Navigate to the Reports/Queries\Item Reports and then click on Barcode Labels Printing window

  • Open the Configuration section.

  • Locate the Lot Code Prefix list.

    • Select the desired prefix (e.g., “S”, “T”, etc.).

As mentioned above, follow the given steps and select the appropriate option from the dropdown as per your requirement.
  • Click Save.

  • Once configured, preview the barcode label:

    The Lot Code will now appear with the selected prefix.

As you can see in the picture, it is being displayed with the Lot Code Prefix.

Configure Prefix in Purchase Settings

  • Navigate to the Purchase Voucher Configuration.

  • Click on "Other Settings 3" tab.

  • Locate the Feature labeled Lot Code Prefix option.

As mentioned earlier, the same prefix that we set in the barcode needs to be set in the Purchase Configuration as well.
  • Choose the same prefix as defined in barcode label printing.

  • Click Save.


Implement the Configuration with a Purchase Entry

  • Create a new Purchase Voucher.

  • Scan the barcode containing the lot code with prefix.

"As shown in the image, searching with the LOT Code prefix automatically loads the product."
  • Complete the purchase transaction.

  • The system accurately identifies the lot code using the prefix.

Use Case Tip: This feature is especially useful in supermarkets or retail chains that create custom packs with internal barcodes.


Set Prefix in Sales Configuration

  • Open Sales Voucher Configuration.

  • Navigate to the appropriate billing series.

As mentioned earlier, the same prefix that we set in the barcode needs to be set in the Sale Configuration as well.
  • Select the same lot code prefix used in both barcode printing and purchase configuration.

"As shown in the image, searching with the LOT Code prefix automatically loads the product."
  • Click Save.


Final Outcome

  • With consistent configuration across barcode printing, purchase, and sales:

    Item Codes and Lot Codes can now be scanned seamlessly. The system correctly identifies which barcode refers to the item and which one to the lot, ensuring accurate billing and inventory tracking.
