Tracing enables identifying specific transactions that may cause a loss. It is used to reconcile the flow of products to and from accounts or locations.
Activating tracing causes additional fields to be updated when adding transactions. Existing rows are not affected by changing tracing settings. Tracing does not create extra work for data entry operators.
Tracing is especially suitable for carriers. A consignment number is typically used to trace a trip, i.e. pickup through to delivery. Note that tracing is unsuitable when consignments are consolidated onto fewer pallets or split onto more pallets before delivery.
All profiles have 'Is Traced' ticked as default. To exclude tracing a trading partner, untick this against the Trading Profile.
