Feature Overview

Adding IMEI and serial numbers to items helps businesses manage serialised inventory more efficiently. Serialisation enables tracking specific items crucial for industries like electronics, appliances, and medical equipment. With myBillBook, users can manually or automatically (via barcode scanning) associate IMEI or serial numbers with individual products, ensuring accurate stock tracking and smoother sales/purchase operations.
