The standard internal batch numbering procedure for materials with segmentation, assigns one batch number for each combination of material, plant, and stock segment during goods movement. The system will use the same batch number for all goods movements of the same combination of material, plant, and stock segment.

Example

Assume a material with different stock segments X, Y, and Z. At the goods receipt of the corresponding stock segments, the batch numbers are assigned as follows: 001 for X, 002 for Y and 003 for Z. If the stock segment Z already exists in the system with the batch number 023, it is posted to the already existing batch 023, and not assigned to the new batch 003.
