Optional fields at the serial number can help to retain the information regarding the approver of the inventory, or the attributes of the inventory
Step 1: Adding optional fields in setup for item
Inventory control –> I/C Setup –> Optional Fields
Add the required optional fields as shown below
Step 2: Adding the optional fields on the item master of the serializable items
Inventory Control –> I/C Items and Price List –> Items –> Serials tab
Adding the optional at the item level will enable the system to auto insert the optional fields, whenever a new serial number is generated for a specific item.
Now when a purchase is made for the serializable item, then the system would show auto inserted optional fields
Information related to a specific serial number can be stored on these optional fields.
