How to work with serial numbers?
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Serial Number Tracking is used to track products with serial numbers on
|
|
every transactions. You can track the current location of the product
|
|
with serial numbers. When the products are moved from one location to
|
|
another location, the system will automatically identify the current
|
|
location of the product based on last movement of the product. So you
|
|
can get the last location where the products are moved.
|
|
|
|
The double-entry management in Odoo enables you to run very advanced
|
|
traceability.

Transfers
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
In order to process a transfer of a product tracked by serial number,
|
|
you have to input the number(s).
|
|
In order to be able to assign serial numbers to products with tracking features
|
|
enabled you will first need to mark your transfer as to do. Click on the **Mark
|
|
as TODO** button to display the Lot Split icon.
|
|
|
|
Click on the serial number icon :

|
numbers.

|
will appear in the list. Just click on the **+** icon to to confirm that you

|
are moving those serial numbers.

In the scanner interface, you just have to scan the serial numbers.
|
|
|
|
Inventory adjustment
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Inventory of a product tracked by serial numbers can be done in 2 ways:
|
|
|
|
- Classic inventory by products
|
|
|
|
- Inventory of a serial number
|
|
|
|
When doing a classic inventory, there is a **Serial Number** column. If the
|
|
product has already been assigned with a number, it is already
|
|
pre-filled.
|
|
|
|
Click on **Add an item** if the product has not been inventoried yet. You
|
|
can easily create serial numbers, just type in a new number in the
|
|
column.
|
|
|
|

|
The quantity should be 1 for each line.
|
|
|
|
You can also just do the inventory of a serial number. In this case, you
|
|
will have to fill in the serial number. You can also create a new one
|
|
from here. Just type in the number, a window will pop out to link it to
|
|
a product.

Serial Number traceability
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
The serial number given to these items allow you to keep track of where
|
|
they were received, put in stock, to whom they were sold and where they
|
|
were shipped to.
|
|
|
|
To track an item, open the **Inventory** module, and in :menuselection:`Inventory
|
|
Control --> Serial Numbers/lots`, click on the serial number corresponding
|
|
to your search.
