Serialized inventory is set up in the same location as your other inventory, in the Product Catalog.

When you buy or rent serialized parts from a vendor you’ll first add the serial numbers to your product catalog. To do this, locate the part and click the Serialized button, which has three dots “…”

image   Note: When a part is serialized, the three dots will have a number before it. This number reflects the total serialized parts (stocked and non-stocked) in your product catalog. In this example, there are 3 serialized parts:

Once you’ve clicked on the Serialized button, you will see a window in which you can add, edit, or delete serialized parts. (You can only delete a serialized part if it’s not in use). There are also various reports that you can print.

To add a serialized part, click the Add button. If you’re re-renting the serialized part from a vendor, be sure to set the “Owner‟ in the dropdown list.

The new part you add will have a “Stocked as” status of “Not stocked‟. Use a transaction to add this part to inventory (stock it).


Close the Product Catalog. From the Transactions tab, click on the Add button to create a new transaction.

On the Materials tab of the transaction look at the Serialized column; you’ll see serialized parts indicated by the button with three dots.

Click on the Serialized button to view the parts and add them to the transaction by checking the box next to the serial number(s) that you want to use.   image

Once you have stocked a serialized part via a transaction, it will appear on the Materials tab with a hyperlink.
