Lot Tracking report

The Lot Tracking report analyzes your inventory from the perspective of lot numbers. You can view a list of transactions for all lot numbers, for some of them, or for a single lot number.

In the settings page, you can filter the report on any combination of lot numbers, items, and/or warehouses. After the report is displayed, you can quickly drill down into the document and item by selecting on links within the report.

Go to Inventory Control > All > Reports > Lot tracking.
Set the filters to get the specific lot, item, or warehouse data you want. As a general rule, to get fewer and more precise results in your report, set more filters.

You can run this report without entering any search filters; however, the report might take a long time to run and might return too many results to be useful.

If you are reporting in a multi-entity environment, you can also set Location and department filters.
Add title, subtitle, or footer text to your report.
To view, process, memorize, export, or customize the report or add it to the dashboard, select one of the following options:
- View: View the report now, in your browser.
- Print: Display the report now, in printable PDF format.
- Process & store: Generate the report and store it for later access. Reports can be either stored in the My Stored Reports list or delivered to a cloud storage location, such as Dropbox. Learn more about processing and storing reports.
- Add to dashboard: Add the report to your dashboard.
- Memorize: Memorize (that is, save) the report so that later you can refer back to it or modify and re-run it.
  
  You can schedule memorized reports to run on a recurring basis. Intacct can automatically email the reports or deliver them to a cloud storage location.
- Export: Export the report to a separate file that you can then distribute or save to your local drive. File formats to which you can export the report data vary among reports.
- Customize: After you run the report, return to the main report page and refine the report further.
- Email: After you run the report, email to others.
Some options are only available if you access the report from the Reports center.

You can use trial-and-error to get the precise results you want. Just fill in the desired fields, and select View to see the report. If the results aren't what you want, select Customize to return to the report setup page and refine the report further. Repeat this process until you're satisfied.

For complex financial reports that will be run regularly, save the report after you're done setting it up. The next time you're ready to run the report, you only have to change the As of date before running the report.

Report filters

Use filters to focus the results of your report, to isolate and assemble just the data you want. You can set any combination of filters.

To set the filters to fine-tune your report results:

To track items for a specific lot number or a range of lot numbers, use the From lot number and To lot number dropdown lists.
How to use From and To fields
All From and To field pairs work the same way. Use them to get search results in as broad or as fine a range as necessary—from everything in the system to a single specific object.
To run this report for a single object:
1. From the From dropdown list, select the object that you want.
2. From the To dropdown list, select the same object.
To run this report for a specific range of objects:
1. From the From dropdown list, select the object that you want to begin the range.
2. From the To dropdown list, select the object that you want to end the range.
To run this report for all objects:
- Leave both From and To fields blank.
If you have a lot of objects or the report takes too long to process, use the From and To dropdown lists to run a series of smaller reports. For example, you can run 5 reports, one each for objects whose names begin with A-E, then F-J, K-O, P-T, and U-Z.
An object is a catch-all term that refers to any specific data item in the system. Customers, vendors, items, and accounts are all examples of objects.
Use the Report on option to choose to track items by either Item ID or UPC code:
- To track items by Item ID: Select Item ID, and then use either the From item and To item dropdown lists or the Operator and Value fields to specify the items to include in your report.
- To track items by UPC code: Select UPC, and then use either the From UPC and To UPC dropdown lists or the Operator and Value fields to specify the items to include in your report.
The Operator and Value fields help you filter on specific items. For example, if you want a report on an item with the ID 800HGT453, but you remember only part of the ID, such as the HGT characters. You can select Contains from the Operator dropdown, enter HGT in the Value field, and select View. The system finds and displays all items where the Item ID contains the character string "HGT". If you select Includes or Excludes from the dropdown, the Value field can contain a list of values separated by commas.
To show results for a specific warehouse or range of warehouses, use the From warehouse and To warehouse dropdown lists.

To filter the report by department, select the department from the Department dropdown list.
If you want the report to cover certain locations regardless of what you select in the Location dropdown list, in the Show for dropdown list select one of the following:
- All Locations: Include data for all locations regardless of the entity you're currently using.
- This Location: Include data only for the entity that you're currently using.
- Child Locations: Include data only for the locations that are child locations of your current entity.
  
  For example, if your current entity is California, and you have child locations for San Francisco and Los Angeles, use this option to have the report include data only for Los Angeles and California.
