❖ Lots are basically given to products we receive in great quantity and it can be useful for batch production of
clothes , furnitures, foods. So for a group of products we can give same or different lot number.
❖ Serial numbers are basically given to those items that could require after sales services like smartphones,
laptops, electronic devices including fridges. So for each unit we have to set a unique serial number in order to
track the product.
