Hi All,
I want to understand a behavior in Business Central.
Let’s say I am creating a Sales Order and using inventory items that are tracked through Lot Numbers.
For example, I have Item A with Lot No. 123 in inventory. When I create a sales order and go to assign the lot number, Business Central shows Lot No. 123 in the Item Tracking Lines list, so I can select it directly. This works as expected.
However, I am seeing another case with Item B, which has Lot No. 456 available in inventory. But when I create a sales order and go to assign the lot number, the lot number list in Item Tracking Lines does not show any available lot numbers.
This is my main question: In which scenarios does Business Central not show available lot numbers in the Item Tracking Lines list, even though inventory exists?
Sometimes if I manually type Lot No. 456, it gets accepted and then appears inside. Other times, even manual entry does not work.
So, in short: Why are lot numbers sometimes not visible in the selection list like Item A, even though stock exists for that lot?
