Alternate IDs tab for Serialized Items

Updated by Cheryl Wallace

All inventory in ToolHound can be referenced by multiple unique IDs such as UPC codes from different vendors, internal bar codes, RFID chip, brass tags or engraved numbers. In the case of serialized items, the list of alternate IDs is maintained on the Alternate ID tab for the serialized item. Read more about Primary ID vs Alternate ID.

For non-serialized items, alternate IDs are maintained on the Part Numbers page.

Fields on this tab include:
