Allocate a beer batch (not a specific keg/cask) to an order at the point of ordering (in advance of assigning stock to the delivery)

[james-collier]

Having the ability to specify a container from a specific batch needs to be picked for an order, but not necessarily the specific container code. This would allow a sales team to allocate the freshest stock to an order (perhaps for export), without needing to assign a container code which may be inaccessible, as it might be in the middle of a pallet. The picking team would then select a keg from the correct batch to fulfil the delivery.

it is very common that a batch might be requested for an order - but out of 15 pallets of cask it would be almost impossible to locate a specified containers - specifying a batch only would be essential for us. thanks

Great news, everyone; this is ready for use

To find out how this works, please see this help guide:

How to pre-assign a batch of stock to an order without choosing specific containers until later

When managing your deliveries, you can assign specific stock (such as specific kegs) to a delivery. Sometimes, at the point of ordering, you will want to choose which batch of stock must be used to fulfil the delivery but don’t yet know which specific cask/keg numbers will be used. Following the implementation of this feature request, Breww now supports this workflow. To set the allowed batches to use, you should first add the product to the order. Then use the edit button: [image] Next, us…
