Serialize equipment and materials in SAP more efficiently
Tracking materials and equipment at granular level requires serialization, which may involve hundreds of thousands or millions of SAP entries. Winshuttle Transaction enables users to rapidly and systematically create serial numbers and assign them to equipment and materials for item-level tracking.
Companies that need to track materials and equipment—especially those in the utility, food, healthcare, and pharmaceutical sectors— can use Transaction to rely on non-SAP data sources, such as Excel or Access, to furnish their SAP systems with granular tracking data.
You can use Winshuttle Transaction as an alternative to the actual SAP transaction IQ01 to create serial numbers for your material. In the case of an IS-U company, devices like power meters can have the details of the devices entered into SAP via a Winshuttle Transaction recording of IQ01. This allows information like manufacturer's serial number; cost; acquisition value and acquisition date to be entered in bulk. This is especially useful since most utilities receive details on metering devices by lots from the manufacturer and the data is usually already in a tabular format in Excel. Using Winshuttle Transaction accelerates speed of data capture in SAP and avoids transcription errors.
