Using the Detail Product Serial Queue

Use the Detail Product Serial Queue to review the list of available serial numbers for a product at a specific branch or warehouse location. If your company assigns serial numbers by product location, use the Detail Product Serial Queue to view all the serial numbers for a product in a specific warehouse location. You can also use the Detail Product Serial Queue to assign serial numbers for products at an indicated branch and location.

You can open the screen from the Product Serial Queue screen, as described below, or open the screen using the Serial # hot key when working in Product Location Maintenance.

If you find problems with serial numbers, you can edit quantities or serial numbers as necessary.

To review the Detail Product Serial Queue:

  1. From the Orders > Queues menu, select Product Serial Queue to display the Product Serial Queue screen.

  2. In the Branch field, enter the branch where the product is stocked.

  3. In the Buy Line field, enter the product's buy line, or leave the field blank to display all products.

  4. Select the product you want to view in the list and use the Detail hot key to display the Detail Product Serial Queue screen.

The system populates the following fields:
