Turn on Serialization for an Inventory Item
Before you can perform this task
You must have serialized inventory turned on
To start using serial numbers with an inventory item:
- Open the Serial Numbers tab in the inventory item's record. How?
- In the Home window, click Inventory & Services on the navigation pane.
- In the Tasks pane, right-click the Inventory & Services icon and select Modify Inventory & Services from the menu.
- Select an inventory or service item from the list and click OK.
- Click the Serial Numbers tab.
- Select This item uses serial numbers.
- (Optional) Enter the serial numbers for any items that you have on hand.
- Click Save and Close.
There are several reasons why you might not be able to turn on serialization for an item.
Notes: If you turn serialized inventory off for an item, all of the serial numbers that have been entered for that item will be removed.
Once an item with a serial number is used in a transaction, you cannot turn off serialized inventory for your company.
