Batch Selection Result 

Definition

Part of the navigation area in the Batch Information Cockpit that focuses on the batch definition of the selected batches.

Structure

The batch selection result consists of the key block and the data area.

Key Block

The batches in the key block are sorted according to material, plant, and batch number. If the batch level is defined at plant level, the plant is missing from the key block.

Data Area

Depending on the selection fields and the display variants (if applicable), the data area displays batch-specific information (shelf life expiration dates, classification data) and material master data. For information on the symbols used (for example, in connection with shelf life expiration dates), choose .

Authorization Check

The selection always checks whether you have authorization for the fields contained in the selection tab titles. For those entries for which you do not have the required authorization, the system displays the symbol in the Authorization column once you have carried out the selection. If you do not have authorization, the system does not display the corresponding data.

Classifying Attributes

If you want to look at characteristics for a batch, or select batches according to characteristics, you enter a selection class in the selection tab title Classification and create characteristic values by choosing .

A selection class within the Batch Information Cockpit should not contain reference characteristics.

Status of Shelf Life Expiration Date (SLED)

In the SLED selection tab title, you determine the format of the SLED status in the data area via the Remaining shelf life field.

In the Remaining shelf life field, enter 10 days.

The batches that will reach their SLED within the next 10 days are flagged with the indicator . The batches that have reached their SLED today are flagged with the indicator . The batches that will not reach their SLED within the next 10 days are flagged with the indicator .

The system interprets no entry as 0 days.

Therefore, batches that have reached their shelf life expiration date today are flagged with the indicator . Batches that have already reached their SLED are flagged with the indicator and batches that will reach their SLED in the future are flagged with the indicator .

Format

You can choose whether you want to display the batch selection result as a hierarchy ( Hierarchy) or as a list ( List). Within each of these formats, you can use the functions below:
