Serial Number Management in Production

[Former Member]

Hi all Experts,

I am with a customer who is in the auto mobile industry. According to there production setup serial numbers are taken from the vehicle they bring (Chasis Number) and entered in to the system during the GR PO. When the vehicles are been assembled the goods are issued through a "issue for Production" at which point the system prompts the available serial numbers to select for production.

(Production = parts addition to the main vehicle)

The Question.

The receipt point we need to "ENTER" the same serial number as the vehicle does not change. Is there a way to list down all the serial numbers that were entered at the "Issue for production" point instead of having the user to enter all the serials once again ? its making them go crazy.

Thanks in advance, Please sort out this question as quickly as possible

Best Regards,

AD

Hi,

I believe the Chassis & Vehicle have different item numbers, right?

Suppose that is true, you can use formatted search to enter this info automatically. It is no need to re-keyed in.
