# Serial No
|
|
|
|
As we discussed in the **Item** section, if an **Item** is _serialized_, a
|
|
**Serial Number** (Serial No) record is maintained for each quantity of that
|
|
**Item**. This information is helpful in tracking the location of the Serial
|
|
No, its warranty and end-of-life (expiry) information.
|
|
|
|
**Serial Nos** are also useful to maintain fixed assets. **Maintenance Schedules** can also be created against serial numbers for planning and scheduling maintenance activity for these assets (if they require maintenance).
|
|
|
|
You can also track from which **Supplier** you purchased the **Serial No** and
|
|
to which **Customer** you have sold it. The **Serial No** status will tell you
|
|
its current inventory status.
|
|
|
|
If your Item is _serialized_ you will have to enter the Serial Nos in the
|
|
related column with each Serial No in a new line.
|
|
You can maintain single units of serialized items using Serial Number.

### Serial Nos and Inventory
|
|
|
|
Inventory of an Item can only be affected if the Serial No is transacted via a
|
|
Stock transaction (Stock Entry, Purchase Receipt, Delivery Note, Sales
|
|
Invoice). When a new Serial No is created directly, its warehouse cannot be
|
|
set.

|
* The Status is set based on Stock Entry.
|
|
|
|
* Only Serial Numbers with status 'Available' can be delivered.
|
|
|
|
* Serial Nos can automatically be created from a Stock Entry or Purchase Receipt. If you mention Serial No in the Serial Nos column, it will automatically create those serial Nos.
|
|
|
|
* If in the Item Master, the Serial No Series is mentioned, you can leave the Serial No column blank in a Stock Entry / Purchase Receipt and Serial Nos will automatically be set from that series.
