Inventory serial number search

[robby_barnes]

I wish there was a way to search inventory just by serial number. I have yet to have that work correctly. Am I missing something, or should I put this as a feature request?

Just copy/paste the serial number into the search field next to the "Computers" drop down option. see:

I figured out the problem. It won't work when you do that if you don't have serial numbers as an option under the "Inventory Display" settings in the computer management. I assumed that it would still search all of those fields, even if they weren't on the main display, but apparently they have to be on the main display to make them searchable.

Thanks!

Thank you! Needed to have serial numbers option checked in Inventory Display.
