Serial Numbers on Sales Orders and Picking List and maybe even packaging lists
I keep reading about of a lack of functionality that does not allow a serial number to be added to a sales order. How can we keep a true track of our inventory if we cannot follow a serial number from Receipt, through Sale and on to order fulfilment? This should surely be a basic requirement of any inventory system. When is this due to go live please as we cannot hope to use Zoho as our inventory system without it. Thank you.

Cloning Items in Inventory App
