• Key Concepts: 
  Aggregation is a feature of the SAP Global Batch Traceability (CA-GBT) component that allows users to group batches of materials together for easier tracking and management. This feature allows users to create a single batch that contains multiple batches of materials, which can then be tracked and managed as one unit. This makes it easier to track and manage large quantities of materials, as well as to identify any discrepancies or issues with the batches.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the aggregation feature in SAP Global Batch Traceability, users must first create a batch that contains multiple batches of materials. This can be done by selecting the “Create Aggregated Batch” option from the menu. Once the batch is created, users can then add additional batches to the aggregated batch by selecting the “Add Batch” option from the menu. The aggregated batch can then be tracked and managed as one unit.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an aggregated batch, it is important to ensure that all of the batches being added are compatible with each other. This means that they should have similar characteristics, such as expiration dates, lot numbers, and other relevant information. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all of the batches being added are from the same supplier or manufacturer. This will help ensure that all of the batches are compatible with each other and will make it easier to track and manage them as one unit.
