1. A communications system comprising:
- a host system in communication with one or more client systems, the host system having a serialized inventory control system configured to;
receive serialized information;
apply validation rules to the serialized information;
flag exceptions to the validation rules; and
report the exceptions, wherein the serialized inventory control system includes database logic to check that that serialized information does not exist for an entering inventory item and that serialized information does exist for an exiting inventory item.
