Serial numbers can be assigned to Rental Inventory on the Asset Tag Detail and to Serialized Sales Inventory in the Serial Number window.
This warning is triggered when a duplicate serial number is identified across sales or rental products, to help prevent a new equipment or sales record from being created when one already exists, or when a Transfer Sales to Rental or a Transfer Rental to Sale should be executed to move the product instead of creating a new product.

This is an alert to the operator but it does not prevent the serial number from being assigned.

PRODUCT#
The rental or sales product number is displayed.
