Stock Tracked Down to Every Serial Number

An electronics retailer cannot treat a phone or a laptop as one interchangeable unit, each one carries its own serial or IMEI number, warranty period and service history. TCB Infotech tracks stock at that level, manages warranty and service records, and keeps store and online stock connected to your existing ERP.

Why Serial-Level Matters

Two Units of the Same Model Are Not the Same Stock Item

Serial-Level Reality

Two units of the same model are not the same stock item

In electronics, two units of the same model can differ by warranty start date, service history and even the serial number a customer's complaint is tied to. Treating stock as a bulk count by model hides all of that. TCB Infotech tracks stock down to the serial or IMEI number so warranty and service questions can be answered against the exact unit, not just the model.

  • Stock tracked by individual serial or IMEI number.
  • Warranty start and service history tied to that unit.
  • Model-level counts still available where that is enough.

Warranty, Service and ERP

Warranty and service records connected to your existing ERP

Most electronics retailers already run an ERP for purchasing and stock, the gap is connecting warranty and service records to that same system instead of tracking them separately. TCB Infotech connects to your existing ERP, builds the custom software for serial-level tracking and vendor warranty schemes, and adds AI where warranty status still has to be checked by hand.

  • Warranty and service records connected to your existing ERP.
  • Custom software for serial-level tracking gaps.
  • AI-assisted alerts as warranty periods approach expiry.

FAQ

Electronics Retail, Answered

What does TCB Infotech do for electronics retailers?
We connect your existing ERP, build the custom software to track stock and warranty records by serial or IMEI number, and add AI automation for warranty status alerts, so every unit can be checked individually rather than as part of a model total.
Does this replace our existing ERP?
No. The system connects to your existing ERP rather than replacing it, so purchasing and stock processes stay in place while serial-level tracking and warranty records connect to the same data.
Can stock be tracked by individual serial or IMEI number instead of just by model?
Yes. Stock is tracked down to the individual serial or IMEI number, so warranty status, service history and returns can be checked against the exact unit rather than a model-level count.
How long does an electronics retail engagement usually take?
Most engagements move from mapping your current stock and warranty workflow to a working pilot within a few months, with scope and timeline confirmed after we review your models, vendors and systems.
What happens after the system goes live?
The same team that built the system stays available for support and changes as new models, vendor schemes or warranty terms are added.
Can ERP integration, custom software and AI be combined into one engagement?
Yes. Most electronics retail engagements combine ERP integration, a piece of custom software for serial-level tracking, and AI automation for warranty alerts, scoped as one project.

How TCB Infotech Tracks Electronics Retail Stock

From serial-level stock counts to warranty alerts and returns. Here is what the system tracks for an electronics retailer.

Core Process

Serial Tracking, Warranty Schemes and Returns

Serial and IMEI Tracking

Every unit tracked individually, not as part of a model total

Each unit's serial or IMEI number is recorded at the point of stock entry, and stays attached to that unit through sale, warranty and service, so any question about a specific unit can be answered without digging through paper records.

  • Serial or IMEI recorded at stock entry.
  • Warranty and service tied to the specific unit.
  • Model-level totals still available where needed.

Warranty and Vendor Schemes

Warranty status and vendor schemes tracked without manual lookup

Warranty start dates, durations and vendor-specific scheme terms are tracked against each unit, and units approaching the end of warranty are flagged automatically instead of being caught only when a customer asks.

  • Warranty start and duration tracked per unit.
  • Vendor and brand scheme terms tracked separately.
  • Units nearing expiry flagged automatically.

Pricing and Returns

Pricing, promotions and returns tracked back to the right unit

Pricing and promotions are tracked by model and by unit where a specific batch carries a different offer, and returns or replacements are tracked back to the original serial number, warranty status and the channel it was bought through.

  • Pricing and promotions tracked per model or unit batch.
  • Returns tracked back to the original serial number.
  • Replacement decisions checked against warranty status.
