Serial number-tracked item
A serial number-tracked item is an item that is tracked by a unique number. When an item is a serial tracked item it can be Issue or Receipt. For example, if a location issues five computer monitors, and each monitor is serial number-tracked, then the issue must list all five serial numbers. The issue cannot list only five monitors, but must denote which monitors were issued. Typically, items are tracked by serial number if they are highly valuable or if it is important to track individual items. For example, serial number-tracked items might include refrigerators, computers, heart monitors, cash registers, and so on.
