Use Traceability to identify recorded WMS shipments for a batch or lot. You can also search by order number or customer/company name.

## Before you begin

You need access to WMS reporting. The stock must have been received and dispatched with the relevant batch detail recorded. Gather the exact batch or lot number and the order or customer information you need to check.

## Find and export matching shipments

1. Go to **Reporting > Traceability**.
2. Select **Batch number** and enter the batch or lot number.
3. Select **Search**.
4. Review matching order, customer/company, product, quantity and shipment-date details.
5. Search by order number or customer/company name when you need to cross-check a result.
6. Export to Excel or PDF when you need the matching records outside WMS.

## Check completeness

This report covers recorded WMS shipment movements. It cannot identify stock received without a batch number or complete a recall process. If the matching count is larger than the displayed or exported rows, narrow the search and check all matching records before acting on the list. If an expected shipment is missing, verify its recorded batch and shipment movements.
