Conditions for Lot Formation

  • When the order being demanded cannot be met by the processing of raw materials from only one supplier, raw materials from several suppliers which meet the specifications for that order shall be combined to form a lot that can meet the order quantity.
  • When one raw material supplier supplies large quantities of fruits together at the same time and all the fruits cannot be processed for one order, the sourcing manager shall divide the batch into smaller lots which can be enough to meet a particular order. Each lot obtained must be processed under a unique processing code that is linked to the original batch.
  • When a farmer supplies raw materials and the fruits can all be processed to meet the order quantity for one particular order, the whole quantity of RM supplied shall be identified as one lot and shall be given a unique processing code by the sourcing manager.
