Note: Serial numbers can be created both before and during purchase order creation.
A serial number applies to a single item. For example, a cell phone.
When using Principle 1a, you can only have one purchase line per serial number.
Using Principle 1b, you can have a purchase line with the number>1, and link the same number of serial numbers.
Principle 1b is described here
At Lager/product, the Serial number must be selected on the product card itself.
