What are Batches?

New Report

New Variable

Create a new variable with the following values:
  • the variable name must be LIEFERSCHEINID
  • the ‘default value’ must be an ID from a delivery note that contains batches:
    • to find this ID, go to a delivery note that contains batches that already exist in your system
    • open this delivery note
    • copy the ID from the URL and enter it in the Default value field
