| Item - Serials and Warehouses (whltc5100m000) |  |
| Use this session to view and maintain the data for serialized items that are individually recorded in inventory. Serialized items are individually recorded in inventory by serial number in the low volume scenario, which is active if the Serials in Inventory check box in the Item - Warehousing (whwmd4100s000) session is selected. To change the serialized item inventory view, choose the appropriate option on the View menu. You can also use this session to manually create a new serial number for a serialized item. At the bottom of the overview session window, the total quantity of serial numbers is shown for the serialized item. Note that this is the quantity of serial numbers for the item, not the quantity in inventory of the item.

Fields | Description
Item | In ERP LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on. An item can also represent a set of items handled as one (kit), or exist in multiple product variants (generic item). You can also define nonphysical items, which are not held in inventory but can be used to post costs or to invoice services to customers. Examples of nonphysical items: Cost items (for example, electricity) Service items Subcontracting items List items (menus/options)
Serial Number | The unique identification of a single physical item. ERP LN uses a mask to generate the serial number. The serial number can consist of multiple data segments that represent, for example, a date, model and color information, sequence number and so on. Serial numbers can be generated for items and for tools. You can manually enter a new serial number for a serialized item. The layout of manually entered serial numbers is not controlled by the serial number mask. Note that if you enter a new serial number, you only add a serial number, you do not increase the inventory for the item. You can allocate a serial number that you enter in this way to a receipt line or an adjustment line. You can only increase the inventory of an item by means of a warehouse receipt or an adjustment order, in which case you must link the serial number to the receipt line or the adjustment order line.

Serial Status | The status of the serialized item. The serial statuses apply only to low volume serialized items. Serial item status
Warehouse | The warehouse in which the serialized item is stored.
Available | If this check box is selected, the item with the listed serial number is available for issues from the listed warehouse and, if a location is defined, the location. If this check box is cleared, the item with the listed serial number is not available for issues for any of the following reasons: The item is blocked. When the item/serial number combination is blocked, this check box is automatically cleared for the item. The item/serial number combination is not yet received in the warehouse or warehouse location. An outbound advice is generated for the item. If the serial number is replaced on the outbound advice or the picking list, this check box is selected again.
Serial Origin | The origin of the serialized item.
Effectivity Unit | The effectivity unit that is linked to the lot to which the serialized item belongs. You can specify the effectivity unit of the lot in the Item - Lot (whltc1100m000) session.
Lot | The lot to which the serialized item belongs.
Order | The order from which the serialized item originates.
Issue Date | The date on which the serialized item is withdrawn from inventory.
Receipt Date | The date on which the items are actually received in the destination warehouse.
Buy-from Business Partner | The business partner from whom you order goods or services; this usually represents a supplier's sales department. The definition includes the default price and discount agreements, purchase-order defaults, terms of delivery, and the related ship-from and invoice-from business partner.
Partner's Serial Number | If the business partner's serial number for the item is available, you can enter it in the current field.
E-item Revision | The number of the engineering item revision. Choose Search Revision, to search the most recent revision of the engineering item. You can only search for the most recent revision if: The item is revision controlled. Therefore, the Revision Controlled check box on the Item - General (tcibd0101s000) session must be selected for the item. Item revisions are taken into account in the Lot Control module. Therefore, the Engineering Revisions in Lot Control check box on the Lot Control Parameters (whltc0100s000) session must be selected.
Inventory on Hand | The inventory on hand of the serialized item. Note The inventory on hand of a serialized item can be 1 or 0.
Inventory Date | A date that is assigned to items when they are stored. You can use inventory dates to retrieve items based on FIFO (First In First Out) or LIFO (Last In First Out), without carrying out extensive lot control. The meaning of the inventory date is connected to the outbound priority of LIFO, FIFO, or the product expiry date of the item. With outbound priority LIFO or FIFO, the default for the inventory date is the system date; however, you can overwrite this so that the inventory date does not have to be equal to the storage date. If the item has a particular shelf life, the inventory date is the product expiry date defined for the item.
Inventory Blocked | The inventory on hold of the serialized item. Note The inventory on hold of a serialized item can be 1 or 0.
Location | The location in which the serialized item is stored if it is on hand.
Allocated | The location allocated inventory of the serialized item. Note The allocated inventory of a serialized item can be 1 or 0.
Location Allocated | The location in which the serialized item is stored if it is allocated.
Inventory on Order | The inventory on order of the serialized item. Note The inventory on order of a serialized item can be 1 or 0.
Inventory Unit | The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter. The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock.
Blocked for All Transactions | If this check box is selected, the serialized item is blocked for all transactions. Related topics To block and unblock
Outbound | If this check box is selected, the serialized item is blocked for issuing. Therefore, you cannot issue the serialized item. You can (un)block the serialized item in the Warehouse - Item - (Un)Block Serials by Transaction (whwmd6136m000) session.
Transfer (Issue) | If this check box is selected, the serialized item is blocked for transfer out of the warehouse/location. You can (un)block the serialized item in the Warehouse - Item - (Un)Block Serials by Transaction (whwmd6136m000) session.
Assembly | If this check box is selected, the serialized item is blocked for assembly. Therefore, you cannot use the serialized item for the assembly of goods. You can (un)block the serialized item in the Warehouse - Item - (Un)Block Serials by Transaction (whwmd6136m000) session.
Commands | Description
Search Revision | Searches the most recent revision of the engineering item. You can only search for a revision if: The item is revision controlled. Therefore, the Revision Controlled check box on the Item - General (tcibd0101s000) session must be selected for the item. Item revisions are taken into account in the Lot Control module. Therefore, the Engineering Revisions in Lot Control check box in the Lot Control Parameters (whltc0100s000) session must be selected.
Product Configuration | Shows the relevant configuration of the assembly item, if the item is a manufactured item with order system FAS. For more information, refer to To store finished generic items.
