Inventory Control > Inventory Serial Numbers > Assign Serial Numbers

Assignment of serial numbers by purchase order is allowed in the system, if the serialized item is received from vendor purchase orders and you did not assign serial numbers at the time you completed the receipt of the particular vendor purchase order in the Purchase Order module.

The Assign Serial # by Purchase Order function provides the ability to assign serial numbers for unassigned serialized inventory items received from vendor purchase orders. This function allows you to select a purchase order receipt and specify the serial numbers you want to assign to the serialized items' unassigned quantities.

To assign serial numbers per purchase order, perform the following steps:

1.Access the Assign Serial # by PO function from the Serial Number group under the Transactions menu in the Inventory Control or Purchase Order module.

2.Enter values in the following fields at the top most area of the function screen:

oWarehouse

Enter in this field the warehouse code where the serialized item is stored.

oBin

Enter in this field the bin code where the serialized inventory item is stored.

oPO #

You may manually enter the purchase order # wherein the serialized item is part of. Alternatively, click the List box button to select from the list the purchase order number. Once a purchase order # is selected, the serial item's number and other details are displayed in the respective fields.

oItem #

This read-only field shows the serialized item's number.

oSpecification

This read-only field shows the serial inventory item's specification, if any.

oStock U of M

This read-only field shows the serialized item's stock unit-of-measurement.

3.Enter in the Selection Criteria page the criteria for setting the desired serial number. Refer to the Selection Criteria Page section for more details.

4.In the Review Lot # page you can review, accept or amend the serial numbers to be assigned to serialized items in this transaction. For more information, refer to the Review Lot # Page section.
