Overview
Increff Omni now supports the feature to map External Serial Code to an Item Code.
Terminology
External Serial Code
External Serial Code is the Serial Number that is associated with the item during its manufacturing and is used to identify the item after its sale.
Marketplaces such as Amazon, Flipkart require this serial number information during the packing of orders and in case this information is not provided, packing fails for these orders.
Workflow
Products screen in OMS
Following are the steps to set the isSerialCodeRequired property for an SKU during Products creation:
...
⚠️ NOTE : If no value is provided in the CSV for isSerialCodeRequired, it will be considered as false.
External Serial Code Mapping screen in WMS
A new screen External Serial Code Mapping is added under the Sundry category. This screen is usedto map an item code with an external serial code.
...
External Serial codes can be mapped to items even though isSerialCodeRequired is False for the corresponding SKU.
This feature only allows a single External Serial Code mapping. So in case, a new Serial Code is entered for an item with an existing mapping, the External Serial Code will be overwritten.
Piece Packing screen in WMS
On scanning Item Code in the Piece Packing screen, if externalSerialCode is TRUE for that SKU and if the item does not have any Serial Code mapping, then a popup to capture the external serial code opens automatically.
