What does the term "batches" refer to in SAP MM?

[Risso]

I was asked these questions but with a different pattern after searching through resources I got this answer.

Batches are smaller units that can be used to represent a material's inventory after it has been divided up. It is shorthand for an entity that cannot be divided and must be defined by itself. In manufacturing parlance, a "batch" refers to the quantity of a particular substance that is created during the course of a single production run. There are three different levels of exclusivity that can be added to a batch number, and they are as follows:

There can be only one batch number associated with a client at any given time. At the level of the material and plant combination, it is possible to assign the same batch number to multiple different material specifications at the same time.

All production facilities that make use of a certain material will adhere to the same standards with regard to the allocated batch of that material. The batch number for each type of material can be reassigned to correspond with a different group of prerequisites.

Hope it helps everyone!
