Hi,

Date 01/01/01 , I purchased 10 Pcs for an Item = X for Location = A = 10 (Item ledger entry no) = 10

I have 2 Locations A , B , C

02/ 01 / 01 I transfer from A - > B = 1 PCS = 11(Item ledger entry no)

03/01/01 I transfer from A - > B = 1 PCs =12(Item ledger entry no)

05/ 01 /01 I transfer from A - C = 1 PCS =13 (Item ledger entry no)

On 06/01/01 I transfer from B - C = 1 PCS. = 14( Item ledger entry no)

Here using Applied entries I know what is the base entry on 06/01/01 .

But what I would like to know is what is the origin entry for this entry – 06/01/01.

That means I would like to know for the Item ledger entry No = 14 the origin number is Purchase entry no = 10.

Is there any chance to know that origin purchase entry

Generally this sort of source tracking is required by businesses that need to track the original item, they achieve this with serial control on teh item because the tracability is critical to the business. I assume you are not using serial tracability, so what is your business requirement for the source entry?

if your business practice needs to see the initial entry for any flown transactions, you need to activate Item Tracking function.
See your item card, there is tab:‘Item Tracking’.

you need also decide whether to use Serial No., Batch No., or Lot No. , and which step of inbound/outbound transactions the tracking is applied.

having this function activated, you will be able to track your item from the very beginning entry, from item card - button:Item - Entries - Item Tracking Entries.
