Serial No. Count Single Dialog Workspace

Use this workspace to enter the counted quantity of the relevant serial numbers.

When you create an inventory count listing, Maconomy automatically creates a serial number count line for each serial number entered on the current item. In this workspace, the Serial No. Count tab displays a line from a main inventory count or a sublisting. The Serial Number Count Lines sub-tab displays the serial numbers entered for the item on the current inventory count line, sorted in stock location order. This means that you can enter the counted quantity of each serial number in this workspace.

You can understand the serial number count as a specification of which serial numbers of a given item there are actually to be found in the warehouse. Therefore, the functionality of this workspace is closely connected to that of the Inventory Count workspace, where you enter the counted units of each item number. When you enter a quantity on a serial number line, Maconomy checks whether the counted number of the item in the Inventory Count workspace corresponds to the total number of counted item serial numbers in this workspace. If this is the case, Maconomy automatically updates the line in the Inventory Count workspace with the latest counted number; thus, the Inventory Count workspace always displays the total number of counted serial numbers. For items that have serial number control you do not need to manually enter the total counted number in the Inventory Count Listing workspace. If the counted number in the Inventory Count workspace does not correspond to the total counted number of serial numbers—for example, if you have counted items on both the item number level and the serial number level—Maconomy does not update the inventory count line in the Inventory Count workspace.

If you approve an inventory count listing and select the Complete Serial No. Count field, Maconomy creates a serial number movement line for each serial number for control of the quantity of serial numbers. The quantity on these lines corresponds to the deviation between the quantities counted and the quantities entered in the Serial Number Information workspace. Maconomy performs a similar control for all items that have the property Complete Serial No. Reg., even if you do not select the Complete Serial No. Count field on the current listing. Maconomy does not perform this control in other cases, even if you enter serial number counts. However, Maconomy does control the entry of the serial number stock on various locations on which you report serial number counts.
