Reserve Serial Numbers for Co-Product
Explanation
Use this activity to reserve a range of serial numbers for a co-product on a shop order.
To reserve serial numbers for a co-product, click Traceability and then click Serial
Numbers.
In the Serial Number Reservations dialog:
- To reserve non-consecutive serial numbers, add a new line and then manually type the numbers in the Serial
No field for each serial number.
- To reserve a serial number range, click Sequence. Add a new line and then specify the range in the
From Serial No and To Serial No fields. To add a suffix and/or a prefix, enter the characters in
the Prefix and Suffix fields. If you want to generate a sequence with zeros added to the beginning
of each serial number up to the total defined length, enter the desired length in the Length field.
The reserved serial numbers are used when the co-products are received into inventory.
