• Key Concepts: 
  Process lot is a term used in SAP Manufacturing Execution (MFG-ME) to refer to a group of production orders that are linked together and processed as a single unit. It is used to manage the production process more efficiently, as it allows for the tracking of multiple orders at once. The process lot can be created manually or automatically, depending on the needs of the organization. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Process lots can be created manually by selecting the production orders that need to be grouped together and then assigning them to a process lot. This can be done in the SAP system by going to the Production Control menu and selecting “Create Process Lot”. Alternatively, process lots can be created automatically by setting up rules in the system that will automatically group production orders together based on certain criteria. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating process lots, it is important to consider how they will be used and what criteria should be used for grouping production orders together. For example, if the goal is to track multiple orders at once, then it may be beneficial to group orders based on their due date or customer. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all of the production orders in a process lot are compatible with each other, as this will ensure that they can all be processed together without any issues.
