The refurbishment view can be used to scan serial numbers and set item characteristics. If the serial number is unique, the corresponding article is loaded immediately and its product and storage location information is displayed. If historical entries already exist, these are displayed.

The individual steps are:

1. scan the serial number
   
2. Display of current parking space and history
   
3. Optional selection of new parking space, selection of attributes and saving

This selection list would appear, for example, if there were the same serial number for different products, or if a serial number had been collected several times (as in the example above).
