Going back to the workaround, you'll want to generate your item serial or identification number automatically then add it to QuickBooks.

We're unable to automatically assign a numbering sequence (like how transaction numbers work). However in both versions, you'll still have to manually assign these numbers (since there are a variety of item serial numbers). You can also use the Manufacturer's Part Number on the item's settings if possible. You can assign a custom field to add the internal inventory identification number. In the Premier version, there are a couple of workarounds for this.
