## What it means for a shop owner

It is used for devices, phones and tyres sold with a warranty. By recording it with the bill you know which customer bought which unit and can check the warranty fast. It differs from a batch number, which groups many units.

## A worked example

You sold 3 phones of the same model with different serial numbers. When one comes back under warranty, its number alone points to the bill.
