# Add a Unique Item to the Inventory

<p class="callout info">Before a stock item can be assigned its unique identifier, it must first be created as a stock item. Serial numbers or unique identifiers are applied to a stock item, making it unique.</p>

To add a unique item to the inventory, go to the Inventory Module Home Page.
