Manage items – Part 2

Serialized item

If item is set as serialized, all physical items with their serial numbers, current location and conditions are shown on this tab.

Documents

Set of documents can be added for each item.

There are two main types of documents – external and internal. External documents consist from URL address to document source. Internal documents are uploaded into the system.

Each document can than have one of following document types specifying content – image, drawing, 3D model and other.

When image type is uploaded, this image is shown as item thumbnail and on item detail on AP and SFI. Document can be set to be shown on SFI (this option is not available for external documents).

All documents set to be shown on SFI will be possible to be listed on item detail during picking and returning flows and can be opened during these flows if the document is of supported file type (image in various formats, PDF or DXF).

If image or drawing is set to be shown on SFI, this document will be directly shown on the item detail during pick or return together with detail text information about an item.

Default information shown during these flows can be set by device settings.

All documents of type image and drawing are automatically set to be shown on SFI for items downloaded from external catalogs.

Following options are available for documents management:

Creates new document

Deletes selected document

Updates selected document
