How can I change the Trakcing Type of the Product?

Sometimes, one may need to modify the tracking type of a product and change it from one type to another. For example, you might need to change the tracking type from “Expiration Date” to “Expiration Date and Batch Number”.

To implement this change, you need to activate the “Allow Negative Tracking Elements” option found in the inventory settings by following these steps:

  1. Click on “Inventory” from the main menu.
  2. Click on “Inventory Settings“.
  3. Click on the “General” card.
  4. Activate the “Allow Negative Tracking Items” option.
  5. Click the “Save” button.

After saving, you can modify the product’s tracking type, including the possibility of editing the product’s previous transactions and modifying the product’s tracking field.

Note: Please be aware that activating this feature also allows for negative dispensing from the product’s inventory balance, which may affect the inventory accounts and the balance of products in the warehouses.
