Serial number administration

Serial number administration in PROLAG®World allows you to store serial numbers which refer to specific materials. The functionality also includes the entry of serial numbers or serial number ranges at goods receipt with reference to the delivery (tracking of suppliers), right up to serial number entry at goods issue and the packing area with reference to the recipient (where-used list for the customer).

Serial number administration

If a serial number is entered at goods receipt, this number remains valid for all goods movements.If a serial number is entered at goods receipt, it applies to the goods as long as they remain in storage. A serial number can also be entered for the first time at stock retrieval. It is important here to determine whether specific serial numbers are required to fulfill the delivery order or whether the serial numbers are irrelevant. If a serial number is entered at goods receipt, this number remains valid for all goods movements.A protocol of retrieved serial numbers is written to the history in order to enable tracking. PROLAG®World also provides a security function to make things easier for your staff: when they scan or enter a serial number, the system makes sure they don’t scan the article number or GTIN by mistake.
