Use a Custom Field to track additional information about a Serial Number, such as consignment information, in Systemize Inventory. The Field will display on the Serial Number Details Page and in the Select Serial Number dialog box when allocating a Serial Number to a Job. It can also be added to an Inventory View. 

Warning: Deleting a Custom Field permanently deletes any information that had been entered for that field.
