Lots and serial numbers are used to track the products. In Odoo, we assign the serial numbers and lots when we are receiving a product to the warehouse. A serial number is a unique number assigned to identify a specific product. Usually, these are the products which are having a guarantee or warranty provided by the manufacturer. For example laptop, TV etc.
A lot number is a number assigned to products indicating the batch or lot in which the product was manufactured, processed or purchased. For example bread, vegetables etc. Odoo supports lots and serial numbers.
