Entering Bulk Serial Numbers

Hi,

We are looking into this but it is a bit on the back burner. I was
looking at creating a seperate button to create a new input window just
to enter the serial numbers and use a BO to write the data back but
didn't get very far. The reason for this would be so the user could
just scan the serial numbers, hopefully keeping it simple. Sorry
haven't got very far with this one.

We sometimes have receipts for serial number tracked parts that are in
the hundreds. The serial number entry screen does not seem to
accommodate entering serial numbers in bulk.

I would like to barcode the serial numbers into the system, but it
seems that the serial number assignment screen only allows one serial
number to be entered at a time. It then pops up a warning message
saying that the serial number could not be found. Once you click yes,
you have to tab about 8 times to get back to the serial number entry
line. Is there a better way to do this or do I need to have a second
barcode that would be scanned after the serial number I am entering to
hit tab, enter and 8 more tabs before the second serial number could
be entered?

Thanks,
Rob
