Use the Serial Number Search to locate a transaction that contains a particular serial number. You can also display the serial numbers for a serialized product, either in stock or on an open sales order, or display serial numbers on open orders for either a customer or vendor.
You can perform searches using a menu choice as described below, or by using the Serial # Search option on the Purchase, Sales, or Transfer Order Inquiries. Use the Inquiries menu on the Body tab of a purchase, sales, or transfer order to access the various inquiry windows.
