Products & Serial IDs (SIDs)
Your master catalog for physical goods.
Understanding Products & Serial IDs
In Bizlync, high-value electronics and items often need individual tracking. When products are ordered and received through Purchase Orders, the system generates unique Serial IDs (SIDs) for every single quantity of that product received.
These tracking IDs can be used for verifying authentic purchases when a customer claims a warranty.
