Replace Serial Number

Explanation

Use this activity to replace one serial part with another in the project delivery structure.

Prerequisites

The serial to be replaced has to be a part of the structure when you run the Gross Requirement Calculation (GRC) in order to calculate the required quantity for it. You must issue both the old an new serial from Inventory, either manually or via the shop order created for its parent part. Note that if you have AfterDeliverySerialTracking and not InventorySerialTracking for the part you can only set the serial number after it has been issued. The new item (with the relevant serial number) will have to be disconnected from the structure after running the GRC. Once disconnected, you are ready to replace the old serial number with the new serial number.
