Revision control for Purchase Items and maintain transact and report based on revisions and all inve

As per our Business requirement we want to implement revision control for Purchase items and order, recieve , store inventory and transact inventory using revisions of items.

I know that for this requirement many suggestions may come to maintain two different items for the same.

But the issue is when any of the inventory calculations happens every thing is based on Item

Like caluculation of Consumption , safety stock, reorder point and many other.

If we want to see the consumption of a specific item then if we maintain revisions then it should give all revision consumption.

Can some one please help if you have any solution for this.

As per my understanding you need to have the item enabled for lot or id in inventory. It will be saved then as a property into the stock point.

Set Lot Tracking and Lot in Inventory and SErial tracking and Serial in Infventory in the Item -Warehousing sub entity. We have it this way for one of our companies. You will be able to use the same item and distinguish by lot and/or serial number

Thanks for your answer, but Serial Control or Lot control will only start from the time we receive , but we want to even specify which revision part to be used in the specific BOM and specific Sales Order or Production Order or Purchase Order

Can we use Unit Effectivity to Solve our issue? I see that our problem can be addressed using this but I want to hear from someone who has used Unit effectivity, also if we go for this we should not be restricted to use unit effectivity only from the End Item , we should be able to use at Purchase Item level

We do revision control also. When we started in Infor we set the revision to the stock to have the starting point. Now all stock shows the serial, the lot and the revision.
