Not all batches are the same — yours shouldn't be treated that way.
Add a custom batch field with the label your industry uses: plant passport, COA number, country of origin. It flows from lot creation to picker to packing slip.
The problems that brought you here
COMPLIANCE GAP
"We need the plant passport on every consignment."
Regulatory requirements like plant passports, COA numbers, or country-of-origin records are per-lot data. Tracking them separately from the lot creates gaps and reconciliation work.
PICKER CONFUSION
"Pickers don't know which COA applies to the lot they're picking."
If batch parameters live in a spreadsheet or document folder rather than on the pick list, the floor team can't act on them. The information exists but doesn't flow.
CHANNEL DOCUMENTATION
"The channel order needs the lot details in the line description."
Some channels and buyers expect lot, expiry, location, and batch parameters in the order line. Without a configurable template, that's manual work on every order.
What changes when you use TraceLot
Per-product custom batch field
Each product can have one custom batch field with a label you choose: plant passport, COA number, country of origin, or any parameter your business uses.
Captured at lot creation
The field is filled in when the lot is created — part of the same intake flow as lot code, expiry, and supplier.
Snapshotted onto the allocation
When a lot is allocated to an order, the custom field value is snapshotted onto the allocation. The record is permanent even if the lot is later edited.
Visible to pickers and on packing slips
The custom field appears on pick lists and packing slips so pickers and recipients can see it without looking up the lot separately.
Configurable channel line template
A configurable line-item template lets you include lot, expiry, location, quantity, supplier, remaining qty, description, and your custom field in the channel order line.
Part of the same system
Pick & pack lists
Bin-sorted pick lists with lot codes and expiry dates — printed for the floor, split by warehouse, with lot details on every packing slip.
Audit-ready records
Every lot in TraceLot carries a complete ledger: receipt, allocations, corrections, transfers, and attached documents — the lot-level records USDA organic certifiers, FSMA, FDA, and Trading Standards style requests ask you to produce.
FEFO allocation
TraceLot assigns the earliest-expiring in-date lot to every order line the moment it syncs — automatically, across every channel.
