Inventory Management | Serial Number Tracking
Per-unit traceability for service, warranty and recall.
Each serialised unit carries its identity from receipt to dispatch to service. Warranty starts at the customer-recognised date. Service history attaches to the serial. Recall trace runs at the unit level, not the batch.

Serial Number Tracking FAQ
What buyers ask.
Can we serialise selectively, only for some items?
Yes. Serialisation is enabled per item category (typically high-value, warranty-bearing or regulated items). Non-serialised items track at the batch or quantity level.
What if the supplier ships multiple units with one serial format we have to re-label?
The system supports supplier serial + internal serial as two fields, with the cross-reference stored. Re-labelling is captured as an event in the audit trail.
Can the customer query their warranty status?
Yes. The customer portal shows warranty status, end date and service history per serial. The customer enters their serial; the lookup runs against your master.
