To activate the menu 
for "Traceability/Batch" in eTouch you first have to go to "Client" -> 
"Administration" -> "System settings" -> "eTouch" -> "Define eTouch 
menu". In there activate the "Traceability menu". When that is done 
the menu for "Batch" in the eTouch main menu will appear. See the picture below. 
Please note that for the moment this functionality is only used by one customer. 
Contact Delacroys support        
                 
              
   for any additional help/information about this functionality.  
              
             
     
              
             
                 
              
          
              
             
               
              
        When this is done a new menu called "Batch" 
will appear in eTouchs main menu. This menu will open up a new form, and here it 
possible to trace material that is needed during the production of orders. There is 
a picture of the form below.           
              
          
              
             
      In the form above there are several fields, 
and buttons which will be explained below. It is also         
               
              
              
             
                           
            important to know that 
if the system is set to allow multiple running orders you first have to 
select the active order in the "Production order" menu in eTouch before the 
"Batch" menu is entered. Several special functions affect this menu as 
well.

      There is additional functionality for 
traceability via "Client" -> "Left side menu" -> "Production order" 
-> "Traceability".         
               
              
              
             
                           
             The idea here 
is that you should be able to trace activity on finished order on the selected 
machine via the "Overview" in "Client". If the previous batch number was saved 
you can see information about that batch number at the bottom of this 
form.
