In Saral, an option is given to create a Batch Number manually or automatically. Auto Batch number creation is based on various factors like Supplier Bill Number, Vendor Code, Purchase Voucher Number, Purchase Rate, Margin, Purchase Discount, Tax Rate.
Batch Number can also be used to;
- maintain the same items with different MRP
- maintain same items with different Purchase/Sale Rates
- Items with Expiry Date or Warranty Details
- Manage Supplier Wise Stock.
Saral also has an option for Auto Batch Number Increment. This comes with a prefix to the Batch number and helps to maintain items that have frequent Purchase and Sales rate changes.
On enabling Batch number, one has to ensure that the Batch number is created for all Inward entries for each item and the same Batch number will be used during outward transactions.
