Set up lot date conversions

A part of a lot number is sometimes based on a converted date. On the Lot Date Conversion page, it is possible to create codes that can be used in a lot number profile to convert a date. For example, the actual date value can be converted to a specific value, such as January (01) converted to an A and February (02) converted to a B.

1. Select the Search icon , enter Lot Date Conversions and then choose the related link.
   The Lot Date Conversions list page opens.

2. On the action bar, click New to create a new entry on the Lot Date Conversion card page.

3. Click the Code field and enter Code of the lot date conversion.

4. Click the Description field and enter Description.

5. Click the Begin Date field to open the calendar and select the starting date.
   This date specifies the starting date of the dates for which the conversion value on the line should be shown in a lot number (instead of the actual date value).

6. Enter Conversion. This is the value that should be shown in the lot number (instead of the actual date value).
   Instead of a year code, it is also possible to create a month, week, weekday or day code. You can enter a maximum of 3 characters.

   

   A lot date conversion for a year is now set up.
