Auto-fill Batch No on Material Transfer for Manufacture

ERPNext Manufacturing
1

When I start a Work Order, ERPNext creates the stock entry Material Transfer for Manufacture based on the BOM. That works perfectly fine.

However, the system does not populate the Batch No field based on a FIFO or Expiry rule. I have tried various settings in the Stock Settings / Serial & Batch Item Settings, however no combination seems to work. Which setting do I have to adjust to get the system to fill-in the batch numbers for that stock entry?

I’m on V15.41.1.

I asked this question yesterday and got this reply:

I do have that option activated already. Yet it does not fill-in the batch-numbers.

However, I don’t use serial numbers, I only use batch numbers.
