The Serial Number Entry window allows you to add new serial numbers for items that are being added to your inventory (originating transaction). On this window, you can enter serial numbers in two ways.
Tips for entering serial numbers.
If, after you have added a serial number to the list, you decide you no longer need it, you can remove the serial number. To remove a serial number, select the number and click Remove. (You can use the Shift key to select a range of serial numbers or the Ctrl key to select multiple serial numbers to remove.)
You can sort the serial number list by either serial number or status. Click either the Serial Number or the Status button at the top of the list to sort. In addition to sorting, you can rearrange the placement of the columns. For example, you might want Status to be the first column in the list. To change the placement of the columns, click the heading and drag it to the new position and drop it. When you drop the heading into the new position, you’ll see a blue line indicating the placement.
The status line at the bottom of the window lets you see how many serial numbers are needed and how many you have added. If the two numbers match, you have entered the correct number of serial numbers. If the numbers don't match, you have entered either too few or too many and will receive an error message when you select either OK or OK/Next.
After you have added the serial numbers that you need, select OK. If the underlying transaction has more than one line item that contains serialized inventory, you can select the OK/Next button to save the current entry and move to the next serialized item. Using the OK/Next button will save you time by allowing you to enter/select all of the serial numbers you need, eliminating the need to go back and forth between the Serial Number Entry/Selection window and the transaction window. When you save the underlying transaction, the serial numbers that you added will be saved.
