If a component in a production order is managed in batches, it is assigned a batch key. The batch key is displayed on the component overview screen and on the detail screen ‘General View’. The following keys exist:

  • ‘X’ Batch allowed

    This key specifies that the component is managed in batches, but that no batch splits have been carried out.

  • ‘1’ Batch totals record

    This key specifies that a batch split has been carried out for the component. An entry with this key displays the total requirements quantity of the component and the quantity that has not yet been assigned.

  • ‘2’ Batch single record

    This key specifies that a batch split has been carried out for the component. An entry with this key shows the portion of the requirements quantity that has been assigned to a particular batch.
