Serial numbers in RF

The serial number entry field on the TWL RF unit allows entry of up to 99 characters. The serial number value is then validated by the Product Extended Serial Formatting Setup functionality. Specific characters are removed, resulting in the 20-character, or less, serial number required by Distribution SX.e.

A message is displayed at each of these serial number validation points when there is no Product Extended Serial Formatting Setup record set up for that vendor, or when the resulting number is more than 20 characters. The message is: Serial length is greater than Maximum Serial Length of 20. Serial number validation occurs immediately upon entry wherever serial number entry is available in the TWL RF; for example, Cycle count, Receiving, Physical count, Putaway, Stock adjustment, Stock movements, Picking, Undo picking, Unplanned receipts, Packing, QA items, Modify receipt, Return to stock, Work order. Ensure that your Product Extended Serial Formatting Setup records are set up appropriately.

See the Removing characters from serial numbers topic in the Products section of CloudSuite Distribution User and Administration Library (Cloud).
