USP/SFS: External ItemCodes and External Serial Code in Packing
- Vineet Nandan
- Rahul Singh
We are thrilled to announce the latest enhancements in the packing flow of our SFS and USP applications, designed to empower users with increased flexibility and efficiency. In this release, we introduce two key features:
Use Existing External Item IDs to Pack: In Increff SFS, users can now capitalize on the convenience of utilizing pre-existing unique external item IDs during the packing process. This feature proves particularly beneficial for brands having serialized inventory or employing the Increff WMS solution for dispatches to their stores. By integrating this functionality, the workflow is streamlined, resulting in a more seamless and efficient packing experience.
Capture External Serial Codes: In Increff SFS and Increff USP, we have introduced the ability for users to capture external serial codes against items to be packed. These identifiers can be seamlessly transmitted to external systems, providing enhanced traceability and integration capabilities. This feature can be utilized for capturing unique serial codes, such as IMEI numbers, etc.
Additionally, this feature enables the capturing of Myntra Tag Loop code against an item being packed, which can then be transmitted to Myntra.
These updates aim to enhance user experience, streamline operations, and provide valuable functionalities for a more robust packing process.
Use Existing External Item IDs to Pack
We're delighted to introduce a new feature in Increff SFS, offering users greater flexibility in the packing process. With this enhancement, users can now pack items using external item IDs when working with a Picklist or fulfilling a specific order.
To leverage this feature seamlessly, ensure that the External Item ID to SKU mapping is preconfigured within the system. This can be done via CSV upload or API. Once set up, users can skip the traditional step of scanning the SKU ID barcode. Instead, they can pack by directly scanning the External Item ID during packing.
Key value additions:
Enhanced Traceability: It ensures item-level traceability of the product being shipped.
Improved Accuracy: It enhances accuracy by ensuring that the wrong SKUs are never shipped.
Steps to use:
Follow the following steps to use this feature:
Go to SFS Packing Screen → Configurations
Turn on the ‘Capture External Item Id in pack by Picklist ID/Order ID’ toggle switch.
Users will see that a text field to capture the External Item ID of the item is made available on the screen under Picklist ID as well as under Order ID tabs.
If the user wants to skip scanning the SKU barcode, Go to Configuration on the Packing screen and turn on the “Skip Client SKU Scan“ toggle switch
The field to scan the Client SKU ID will be disabled

The user can then just scan the External Item ID to pack the item.
Capture External Serial Codes
We are delighted to introduce a new feature in both Increff SFS and Increff USP, providing users with the option to capture an external serial code during the packing process. This feature can be utilized when packing orders from a Picklist or when packing a specific order by order ID or external item code.
Key value additions:
This feature can be used to capture Myntra Tag Loop value.
Steps to use:
Following are the steps to use this feature:
Go to the packing screen in Increff USP/Increff SFS
Turn on the 'Capture External Serial Code' toggle switch. A field to scan External Serial Code will be displayed.
Users can scan the External Serial Code in this field, and the value will be captured upon clicking the 'Confirm Packing' button.
Users have the flexibility to activate this feature even while in the midst of the packing process.
To map items that are already staged scanned for packing, the user can click on the 'Map' button under the Actions column in the Item(s) Scan Completed table.
