Tracking dimension group setup link with the InventSerialTable record creation

Posted on by 3,002

Hi pioneers,

While registering the items in purchase orders, came to know that only some of the serial numbers recorded

in the from Serial numbers . (Path: InventoryAndWarehouseManagement\Inquiries\Dimensions\Serial numbers)

I found the reason behind by debugging, When certain conditions are met then a record is 

created in InventSeriaTable.

\Classes\InventMovement\updateSerialNumReceipt

inventDimGroupFieldSetup = this.inventDimGroupSetup().getFieldSetup(fieldNum(InventDim,InventSerialId));
if (!inventDimGroupFieldSetup.isActive() || !inventDimGroupFieldSetup.isSerialNumberControlEnabled())
{
    doUpdate = false;
}

if (doUpdate)

      inventSerial.insert();

From above script came to know that Insertion of InventSerialTable is not triggering in the Items which holding Tracking dimension group with the setup 

Serial number control - not enabled, 

serial number active   - not enabled.

I would like to know what is the reason behind linking of recording serial number in InventSerialTable

(creating record in InventSerialTable) only when the above conditions has met.

    It depends upon the characteristics of each item. You want the overhead of serial numbers to track and record day a laptop, but you would not serial control the pozi screws holding it together, difficult to stamp then with an identifier and also pointless.

    Question is do you need to track the item, and is it possible to identify it to track?

    You only need to record serial numbers when you tell the system to record serial numbers - so it is active. Not every item is serial controlled, so if they are not you would not want an entry in the InventSerialTable.
