LPN stands for License Plate Number and is used in warehouse management systems to logically group items that physically travel together. An LPN allows items from a sales order that are picked into a tote and move through quality control and shipping together to be tracked as a single transaction rather than individual transactions for each item. Empty totes are assigned LPNs that are added to in Oracle as items are picked into the tote. Then a single transaction can be used to record the LPN's movement through the warehouse and shipping as a group rather than separate transactions for each item. LPNs can also be used for supplier totes and picking on the shop floor.

As Helios said LPN is License Plate Number and is used in WMS.
A LPN allows you to logically group items together that physically travel together on the floor. An example is as follows Say, your shipping process is as follows. Your sales order has a 10 items. To ship the order, you first obtain a empty tote. Then the tote moves thru' the warehouse and you add different part numbers to the tote. Once filled, the all picked items move together. They are moved to a QC location and then they are moved to a shipping location and then they are shipped together. Doing this without LPN means that you will have to do picking for 10 items. As these items are move thru' the locations, you will have to do 10 subinventory transfer transactions. And then you will ship the 10 items. If you use LPN, it works much easier as follows. Each empty tote is assigned a number (barcode or RFID is used in many cases). You create this as an LPN in oracle. As you add items to the tote, in Oracle you add them to the LPN. Now, as material moves and ships, you simply have to do one transaction for the LPN to denote transaction for the 10 items. Once shipped, the LPN (and the tote) becomes empty and can be reused. LPN is used in other cases too such as supplier's totes, for picking on shopfloor etc
