A phone/electronics shop need to capture the serial or imei number of the device sold., it is meant to be stored in the system for the purpose of identifying the device in particular which was sold to the customer and is meant to be in the invoice say POS invoice and standard invoice, in case someone is claiming the customers device
You can create a customised field for the same using the Customise form option to capture this information in a doctype and can set it to be mandatory, unique, etc. as per the requirement. Check the screenshot below where the IMEI field (mandatory) is created in the sales invoice.
will it appear in the print
Of course, Just Customize print format.
@ebeneebz, properly manner, is use Serial Numbers.
But the bestway to achieve that is:
Each device can have multiple identification numbers.
For example one cellphone can have:
Serial Number
IMEI 1
IMEI 2
So, to properly setup this scenario, you need to use, Serialized Items + Product Bundles
Where, for the Device, you define the ‘Serial No’ as the standard identification number, and setup the Product Bundles, according each device vendor/model.
Eg:
Azus Zen Phone With 2 IMEIS
Packed Items:
Cellphone Asus Zen Phone, qty 1, Serial No JABX0 0000002392
IMEI, qty 2, Serial No 1 = 99349394394394, Serial No 2 = 39343438439493483

That schema will force you to delivery one packed item, with all the information track related.

Section no 4 in the link you sent says, If any transaction is done with an item, Serial No cannot be set or unset.
In my case it will be applied in new items.
This time I need to temporarily use it at the point of sale
Yes. If you customise the form, it will appear in the print format.
Can this feature have effect in POS. I want it to have effect in pos
How does this work on v13 beta13? I don’t get an option to select serial number at the packed items level.
I can’t select it at the items table as the item is not a maintain stock item but a product bundle.
It’s in the packed items table
Dear @max_morais_dmm can you share a video for 2nd IMEI linked with Packed Item. I need your expert opinion to learn about:
- How ERPNext entertains 2 IMEIs.
- How can we scan 2 IMEIs for same piece at document submission -Stock Entry, Purchase Receipt, Delivery Note etc.
- How does warranty claim consider 2 IMEI’s of same piece!
- Warranty Claim eligibility is considered at the activation of a cell phone, how can we entertain warranty days at this scenario?
@Naveed1 I can’t record a video, cuz I no longer have access to the instance of the customer!
Him continue using ERPNext, but it have moved as responsability of the internal development team!
On the scenario we had, I changed a lof of things on the code to support this, If I was goind to remake the whole project, I was going to make things simpler!
Create a product bundle!
Pack Installation Equipment X
- 1 Equipment X - Requires Serial Number
- 2 IMEI Card - Requires Serial Number
This will make things a lot simpler!
Waranty claim was raised against the Device Serial Number, or the SIM Card Imei, not both simultaneously!
