Repeat-Lot Requests and Lot Reservation
A request for the same lot needs more detail than a repeat order for the same product. State the lot you want, the quantity required and the point at which you need confirmation. Knockout Labs must confirm availability and any allocation arrangement in writing before you rely on it.
Make the requested commitment explicit
| Field | What to provide |
|---|---|
| Product | Exact name, form and container size |
| Required lot | Identifier from the previous container or report |
| Quantity | Number of containers, with any staged requirement |
| Timing | Required dispatch date or proposed supply schedule |
| Documentation | Specification and report version used for your earlier assessment |
| If unavailable | Whether you want an alternative-lot enquiry or no substitution |
Send the enquiry through institutional supply or contact. An enquiry, quotation or displayed stock figure does not by itself establish that a named lot has been reserved for you.
Include the request in the volume-supply enquiry where relevant and keep the purchase-order and invoice references connected to any written confirmation.
Read a confirmation for its limits
A usable confirmation would identify the product, lot and quantity covered, the period of the commitment and any conditions. Ask for unresolved terms before planning work around the allocation. This page does not announce a standing lot-reservation service or promise indefinite availability.
If the lot changes
Record the new lot separately. Compare its identity, specification and available results with the earlier material, then decide whether your research requires additional qualification. Meeting the same specification is a different question from behaving identically in a particular assay.
Keep the earlier and replacement document references in your research lot log. See batch-to-batch consistency for the comparison framework, and stock and repeat supply when your question concerns replenishment rather than a specific lot.
