Item - Serials and Warehouses (whltc5100m000)

Use this session to view and maintain the data for serialized items that are individually recorded in inventory. Serialized items are individually recorded in inventory by serial number in the low volume scenario, which is active if the Serials in Inventory check box in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4600m000) session is selected.

To change the serialized item inventory view, choose the appropriate option on the View menu.

You can also use this session to manually create a new serial number for a serialized item.

At the bottom of the overview session window, the total quantity of serial numbers is shown for the serialized item. Note that this is the quantity of serial numbers for the item, not the quantity in inventory of the item.

Note: From the appropriate menu you can start the Order related Customer Owned Inventory by Warehouse and Lot (whltc1509m000) session to view customer owned, low volume- lot-controlled inventory and the related receipt orders. This option is active if the Service package is implemented, but unavailable if no order related low volume lot-controlled customer owned inventory is present.

Serial Number

serial number

You can manually enter a new serial number for a serialized item. The layout of manually entered serial numbers is not controlled by the serial number mask.

Note that if you enter a new serial number, you only add a serial number, you do not increase the inventory for the item. You can allocate a serial number that you enter in this way to a receipt line or an adjustment line.

You can only increase the inventory of an item by means of a warehouse receipt or an adjustment order, in which case you must link the serial number to the receipt line or the adjustment order line.

Business Partner Company

The logistic company of the buy-from business partner from whom the serialized item is received.

The business-partner company is automatically added when the item is received from the buy-from business partner. If the item is transferred to a warehouse in a different logistic company through a multicompany warehouse transfer, in the ship-to company, the business partner company is the ID of the company in which the item was originally received.

The business-partner company ID enables the receipt of lot items or serial items in multicompany warehouse transfers if the business-partner database tables are not shared between the ship-from and the ship-to companies.
