Enter Order Line - Adding Serialised Items

If you select a serialised item on the Enter Order Line screen when you are adding items to an MRF order or quote, and there is unallocated stock of that item, Micronet prompts you to view the available stock for selection of serial numbers. Items coming directly from stock are selected using the serial numbers; the unit recognition is updated automatically based on the dimensions found in the serial UDQ.

 

Reference

If you want to retain units of measure for rolled and offcut items on returns and credits, you must already have setup UDQs for length, width and quantity. For more details on setting up these UDQs, see "Creating UDQs on the Serial File to Hold Dimensions".

This provides the item with unit recognition and serial numbers which both relate back to the order quantity; both quantities have to be equal when invoicing.

 

Technical Tip

For orders going onto job cards for rolling, the quantity is entered through the standard Unit Recognition screens without serial numbers having to be selected. Once the job card is completed, the serial numbers are automatically created and allocated to the order.

To select available stock using serial numbers:

  1. Display the Enter Order Line screen.

Refer to "Entering MRF Order Lines".

  1. Select a rolled stock item that has stock available.

  1. Select the Accept button.

Micronet redisplays the Select Roll Stock Serial Numbers screen.

  1. Select the Ok button.

Micronet redisplays the Enter Order Line screen with the total quantity displayed in the Ordered field. It also automatically updates the unit recognition files with the dimensions from the serial UDQs.

  1. Continue entering the rest of the item details as normal.
