RE: Inventory Management : Serial Number

Hi Guy

The company profile setting only changes the default to 'S' for new items.
You can leave the company profile at something else but only change the
individual items if you want to have both controlled and uncontrolled items
in the same company. Item set up before changing the default will retain
their old setting.

You must enter a serial number for all movements for controlled items, the
quantity must always be 1 - that is every unit must have a unique ID. The ID
is created new for receipts (must NOT already exist), but must already exist
for issues etc.

Subject: [SYSTEM21] Inventory Management : Serial Number






Hello

      We have a user who wants to control part of his stock by item serial
number.
      From what I  have gathered in Infobase, you need to modify the company
      profile, and at item level use Lot Control type 'S'.  You also need to
input a
      'Serial Number' for each transaction involving a lot controlled item.

      On a more practical aspect, I would like to have any tips from those
who have
      already implemented Serial Numbers. We need to know whether it is more
      of a burden for users rather than help them.


Regards,
      Guy Alain GENEVIEVE
