Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-5704:
-------------------------------------

Yes, such roles (except Manufacturer) can applicable in an organisation and its 
manufacturing and warehousing related business processes. But, only a 
manufacturer (internal or external) is directly related to an entire lot. 

The others roles can only be related to parts of the lot (via inventory items, 
and inventory items) at best. E.g. when a good is externally manufactured, the 
persons involved in inspection can only assess inventory items the - internal - 
company has stock. They can't be in control of, or otherwise asserting 
something about goods that are not under the influence (or control) of the - 
control - company. 

> Extend lot entity to include party Id of manufacturer

> Rationale
> Lot or batch management affects two places, namely the outbound process (and 
> its functionalities) and inbound. 
> It is possible that multiple parties have the same ID for the batch or the 
> lot. Howver, in current feature set there is no discrimination between lots 
> from supplier A, supplier B, or even the primary (internal) company in OFBiz.
> Therefore the entity 'Lot' should be extended with another key, namely that 
> of the partyId of the manufacturer (or supplier).
