	<AimSection><Paragraph>This topic describes how to actually assign serial numbers to (end) items in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti" role="package">Manufacturing</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
	</AimSection>
	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>The sessions that you use to assign serial numbers are in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc" role="module">Manufacturing Control</GUIRef> module. Carry out the following steps:</Paragraph>
		<ProcedureList><ListItem>When you are working on a production order, use the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc0110m000" role="session">Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000)</Link> session to view the generated serial numbers of end items, or to assign serial numbers to end items yourself. If the order quantity of a production order is five products, a line for every product (five lines in total) is generated in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc0110m000" role="session">Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000)</GUIRef> session. The <Link href="/baanerp/ti/sfc/tisfc0100s000#tisfc000.serg" role="fieldhelp">Moment of Generating Serial Numbers</Link> parameter determines the exact moment that serial numbers are generated for the end products.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>If you select an item in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc0110m000" role="session">Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000)</GUIRef> session, and click <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc0110m000#as.built.components" role="formcommand">As-Built Components</GUIRef> from the <GUIRef href="" role="menu">Specific</GUIRef> menu, the <Link href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc0111m000" role="session">Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000)</Link> session is started. In this session, the (serialized) components of the serialized end item are displayed, and you can link serial numbers to serialized component items. If a specific end item requires three pieces of a specific serialized component, and one piece of another serialized component, four component lines are created for the end item in which you must enter a serial number. You are creating a so-called as-built structure to establish which specific components (identified by serial numbers) are used in specific end items (also identified by serial numbers).</ListItem>
			<ListItem>After you have assigned serial numbers to components in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc0111m000" role="session">Serial End Item - As-Built Components (timfc0111m000)</GUIRef> session, you can check whether the as-built structure is complete. All serialized components must be provided with a serial number otherwise you cannot copy the as-built structure to an as-maintained structure in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ts" role="package">Service</GUIRef>. To check the as-built structure for missing serial numbers, select the end item in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc0110m000" role="session">Serial End Item - As-Built Headers (timfc0110m000)</GUIRef> session and click <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/mfc/timfc0110m000#validate.as.built" role="formcommand">Validate</GUIRef> from the <GUIRef href="" role="menu">Specific</GUIRef> menu.</ListItem>
