Concepts Tasks Settings Setting up Repairable Spares Contents Setting up the Site to Support Serialized Resources Setting Up Assets, Resources and Inventory Units for Repairable Spares Manually Adding Serialized Inventory Units Setting up Serialized Inventory Units Not Linked to Assets There are different situations when you would convert assets and resources to serialized inventory: • When you first set up your assets and resources in APM • When you decide to convert existing assets and resources to serialized inventory • When you add assets that were missed when you set up serialized inventory support • When you are adding new serialized resources that are not linked to assets Before you create resources or convert any data, you must first set up the site to support serialized inventory. After the site settings are complete, you can add serialized resources and (if desired) link them to assets. If you are linking your serialized resources to component assets, the steps must be followed in the correct order. The asset must be linked to the resource before it is turned into a serialized resource. The inventory balances must be correct before the units are created.
