Set up pooling lot aggregation templates

Article07/04/20242 min read

You can set up pooling lot aggregation templates to determine how the system should summarize or aggregate multiple settlement lines into one pooling line. You can define the aggregation by selecting which global lot attributes should be considered, typically defined per product group. For example, when aggregating settlement lines with apples, the variety of the apples is relevant, but the country of origin is not. Here, you will select the global lot attribute representing the variety of apples.

You can apply a pooling lot aggregation template to a pooling template or on the Calculate Settlement page. For more information, see Set up pooling templates or Create and run a settlement.

Note

You can only use lot attributes that are defined as global lot attributes. For more information, see Global Lot Attributes.
