Serial Numbers
The Serial numbers functionality provides the ability for using and tracking parts and products with unique serial numbers (S/N).
The Serial numbers functionality is for tracking every item individually. By default, MRPeasy tracks all items by batch already, so if tracking of Batch No./Lot No. is required, this function is not needed to use.
This functionality can be enabled at Settings -> System settings -> Professional functions -> Serial numbers, after which
- the section Stock -> Serial numbers becomes available.
- for tracked items:
- the section Serial number becomes available in stock lots details and Manufacturing Orders.
- the item report Serial Numbers becomes available.
- actions with serial numbers can be reported.
- serial number labels can be printed. - custom fields for serial numbers (displayed in the Stock -> Serial numbers section) become available.
