Introduction
Serial controlled products are those products that have a unique serial number attached to them. Whenever these products are received in the store, it is mandatory to allocate serial numbers to all the pieces that are being received. A good example for a Serial product would be electronic items. For example: a mobile phone, or a television.
Batch controlled products are those products that have a shelf life. These products are dealt with in batches and every batch may have one or more than one quantity in it. A good example for a Batch-controlled product would be dairy items. For example: milk, butter, eggs etc.

At the Web Register, it is mandatory to select a serial number every time a serial controlled product is sold and a batch number every time a batch-controlled product is sold.

In case you have activated the plugin Customer Order and Delivery Management, you have the option to furnish serial numbers or batch numbers at the time of delivering the products. This is a setting that is controlled by a switch in General Settings > Global Settings > Select serial/batch at the time of delivery
