Item Tracking
COSMO Quality Assurance offers lot number and serial number tracking, which guarantees a monitoring of the whole production process from the goods receipt to the final product.
Item Tracking Setup
The Item Tracking Card is used to indicate item-dependent inspections for the processing of serial- and lot numbers. Each FastTab refers to certain aspects of the item tracking such as serial numbers and lot numbers, respectively. The settings made on the Item Tracking Card will be used each time an item with the respective code is moved within the application.
The Item Tracking Codes can be accessed using Tell Me. Choose the 
icon, enter Item Tracking Codes, and then choose the related link. In the Item Tracking Codes page, choose the New action to create an item tracking code or the Edit action to open an existing item tracking code.
The Initial Status field defines the initial status of the lot or serial number, such as the status that is allocated to a new lot number or serial number.
To ensure an integrated lot tracking, turn on all toggles on the Serial No. or Lot No. FastTabs.
Transfer Comments on Rename
To keep information about lot numbers or serial numbers with the inventory, existing comments can be transferred when a new lot number or serial number is created through rename or split in the Lot/Serial No. Administration page. The way in which comments are transferred to the Lot No. Information Card or Serial No. Information Card is determined by the options in the Transfer Comments on Rename field on the Misc. FastTab of the Item Tracking Code Card page.
Options
The options in the Transfer Comments on Rename field are described in the following table.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| <Blank> | Existing comments – or new comments added during posting – are not transferred to the new Lot No. Information Card or Serial No. Information Card; both stay on original information card. |
| Copy | Existing comments are copied to the new Lot No. Information Card or Serial No. Information Card and remain on the original information card. |
| Move | Existing comments are moved to the new Lot No. Information Card or Serial No. Information Card and are removed from the original information card. |
| Copy+New | Existing comments are copied to the new Lot No. Information Card or Serial No. Information Card. New comment(s) is not transferred to new information card; it remains on the original information card with existing comments. |
| Move+New | Existing comments are moved to new Lot No. Information Card or Serial No. Information Card. New comment(s) is not transferred to the new information card; it remains as the only comment on the original information card. |
