Topic:   Serial Numbers

Hi,

As part of our stocks, we have instruments with unique serial numbers. Would miniMRP be able to identify the individual instrument within a total stock number of several hundred?

Thanks

Serial numbers (and/or batch numbers) would be ideal for where traceability is required. Presently, I use an external spreadsheet - not ideal.

Serial numbers are a much needed feature. I have been looking at other software for the near future so I can manage serial numbers.

We have 3 licenses and would absolutely love "end to end" serial number tracking. Some of our items we resell are high value and for us to keep track of when each came in and where each went in one app would be a great help. At a minimum, if there was a better way of tying serial numbers to customer orders than using the comment field, I would love it.

For us, "end to end" serial number tracking falls in the "nice to have" category, but tracking end-item serial numbers to customer orders would help us.

End to End serial Number tracking would be beneficial to us too

I am evaluating this product, and it has almost everything that I need. The only thing that I need that is not implemented is the end to end serial numbers. Do you have plans to add this?

By: GuestPosted on: Feb 27 2018 at 04:05:00 AM
this is something that we also require, although end to end would be brilliant, in reality with how all bar a couple of our assemblies are produced even if it's just adding an editable box to the customer order per line (important needs to be able to be edited after the customer order is produced as if we have batched a load of assemblies it would then allow us to record the serial number of the unit we are sending) that would be grat as currently we have to run a seperate spread sheet to do this which seems a bit like doing the job twice

i would also go so far as to also say an increase in cost for extra functionality wouldn't be a killer if it means improvements happen faster

maybe it's worth starting a feature voteing board like microsoft does for it's products ?

Great idea. This would meet our needs for "end item" serial number tracking.

This would be a great enhancement. There are 2 aspects of this: Serial number of the built item, and serial numbers of high-value components within that item. In our case the final product at the top of the multi-level BOM has some FRUs that could also have serial numbers. The FRUs may be bought in as components with external serial numbers not generated by us.
One thing to consider with this is that if it becomes a v5 feature it also needs to support retrofitting around what is already there, so we need to be able to update existing inventory records with serial numbers when migrating to v5.

This would be great for us too. We also use an Excel spreadsheet to track serial numbers. These are allocated at the customer order stage.

Upvote too - we use xcel sheet and separate custom database, even end-Sn/Batch would be good.

Serial Numbers tracking is a need to have feature for us.

This is in the "Wish List" but, to be honest, I think it's too much for a "MINI" mrp so is unlikely to be ever included in MiniMRP

By: GuestPosted on: Jun 16 2021 at 01:48:22 AM
We use full component / batch traceability.
Recording the GRN of picked stock for an assembly batch build (components) and then recording the works order reference for picked stock on packing list (finished product), this is loaded onto an access database. We don't use indiviual serial numbers, we use batch numbers.

It's a long way round, but we have to do it. We would love anything that adds more features, and if it's MaxMrp at extra cost, great.

Any improvement for serial number / traceability?

By: SupportPosted on: Jul 28 2021 at 03:48:41 AM
Sorry. No. Serial Number traceability really is too much for a MINI mrp.
