Traceability & lot labels · Available today
When a batch has a problem, don’t search through registers
Find the material lot and trace it back to its supplier, purchase order, goods receipt, quality result and inventory record — from a batch number, a scanned barcode or the QR label on the bag.
In short
What traceability does mosaicOne support?
mosaicOne supports backward traceability for raw material and bought-out lots today. The batch number recorded on the goods receipt is carried through quality inspection into inventory. From that batch number, the trace view shows the purchase order and supplier, the goods receipt, the quality result with accepted and rejected quantity, the stores location with on-hand quantity, and the stock movements for the lot. With the production module, the same chain extends forward into production, finished goods and dispatch.
The chain behind every batch
Supplier and PO
Who supplied the material and the order it was bought on.
Goods receipt
When it arrived, how much, and the batch number assigned.
Quality result
Accepted and rejected quantity, and when it was inspected.
Inventory
Warehouse, bin and on-hand quantity.
Stock movements
Every movement recorded against the lot.
Production and dispatch
Tracing lots into production and finished goods.

Why it matters
What you can answer in one lookup
- Which supplier and purchase order a batch came from
- When it was received and how much arrived
- What quality found: accepted and rejected quantity
- Where the batch is stored and how much is on hand
- What has been recorded against the lot since it arrived
Sample trace
One batch number, the full upstream record
The chain is not rebuilt after the fact. Each record is created from the one before it — the GRN from the PO, the quality result from the GRN line, the stock from the quality result — so the links exist from the moment the material arrives.
| Step | Record | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Supplier | SteelWorks Ltd | Supplier master record |
| Purchase order | PO-000092 | Approved · 1,000 kg MS Sheet 2mm due 04 Oct |
| Goods receipt | GRN-000061 | 600 kg received on 04 Oct as batch B-24091 |
| Quality | QA-000058 | 560 kg accepted · 40 kg rejected |
| Inventory | RM Store · A-03-2 | 560 kg available |
| Stock movement | RECEIPT | +560 kg against QA-000058 |
Lot labels
Physical material, connected to its digital record
Any batch in stock can be printed as a QR code or a Code 128 barcode on A4 sticker sheets — in small, medium or large sizes, for example 20 medium QR labels or 30 medium barcode labels per page — and stuck on the bag, coil, drum or pallet.
Scanning the QR code with a phone camera opens the lot’s page: material, batch, GRN, receipt date, QA number and date, received quantity, supplier and purchase order, as recorded when the label was printed. Signing in shows live quantity and the full trace. A handheld barcode scanner can read the Code 128 label straight into the trace search.
What comes next
Extending the trace into production
Today the trace runs from supplier to stores. As the production module is built, the same chain extends forward — from a raw material lot into production orders, finished goods and dispatch.

How do I trace a batch in mosaicOne?
Search the batch number in the trace view, or scan the lot’s Code 128 barcode into it with a barcode scanner. The trace shows the purchase order and supplier, the goods receipt, the quality result, the stores location and on-hand quantity, and the stock movements for that lot.
Can I print labels for inventory lots?
Yes. Each lot in stock can be printed as a QR code or Code 128 barcode label on A4 sticker sheets, in small, medium or large sizes, and attached to the physical material.
What does scanning a lot QR code show?
Scanning the QR label with a phone camera opens the lot’s page: material, batch, GRN, receipt date, QA number and date, received quantity, supplier and purchase order, as recorded when the label was printed. Signing in to mosaicOne shows live quantity and the full trace.
How far does batch traceability go?
Today it runs from supplier to stores: purchase order, goods receipt, quality result and stock. With the production module, the trace extends forward into production orders, finished goods and dispatch.
