DealPOS has provided a serialized product type. With the serialized product type, we can add product serial numbers so that every stock of each item has its unique serial number. Checking the serial number will be useful when we want to make warranty claims. With the Serialized Type of Products, we can create an Electronic Product with a unique serial number on each stock (eg. Phones, Cameras, Speakers, etc).
Usually, adjustments are used for stock taking, adding, or reducing product stock outside of sales and purchase transactions. If we want to add or remove a specific serial from a serialized product, they can only adjust it using the adjust differences method.
Therefore, serialized products can only be adjusted through the adjustment archive using the adjust difference method. If we try to adjust via CSV or web spreadsheet an error message will appear as the image below:
Before adjusting the serial for serialized products, make sure that we have at least one serialized product. Read this article to find out How to Add Serialized Products
