Three unique options for a material are available:
At plant level
At material level
At client level
Prerequisites
If the material or client level for a material is chosen, check that no materials
exist in stock. If a material exists in stock, the level may not be changeable.
Procedure
1.
Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
IMG Menu
Logistics - General --> Batch Management --> Specify Batch
Level and Activate Status Management

....4.2Creating Sort Sequences
Use
The purpose of this activity is to create the sort sequence used to sort batches
during batch determination. In this case, the characteristic EXPIRY_DATE,
RECEIPT_GATE are assigned to the sort class batch_class
Prerequisites
As a rule, all characteristics (this applies to standard characteristics as well as
to user-defined characteristics) used in the sort sequence must also be
contained in the batch class.
