Use

You can use serial numbers to clearly distinguish individual objects from one another. Serial numbers allow you to follow up easily on individual goods-movements objects such as the sale of certain goods to a customer. For each packed item, you can select serial numbers in the packing dialog, provided the master data of the respective materials is maintained accordingly. A dialog box for serial-number maintenance appears, where you can make the required entries.

For more information about serial numbers, see Structure link Serial Numbers in Handling Units.

Prerequisites

The serial number profile that allows serialization in handling units must be entered in the appropriate material master record.
