Serial numbers help manage when a product was created or manufactured. This can be used when customers need to replace or repair an item.
You can track serial numbers in Ordoro (see this support article) by saving this information per product. There’s also the ability to scan the serial numbers during the pick/pack process. This will save the serial number(s) per order. See below for details.
