Yes, you can choose the option Autofill from existing inventory when creating the sales order. By doing this, you'll have the same serial number for both inventory assembly item and the sales order items.

1. Go to the File menu.
2. Choose Preferences.
3. Select the Items & Inventory.

5. Pick the Serial/Lot Numbers tab.
6. Make sure to mark the Enable Lt or Serial Numbers tick box.
7. Choose the Serial Numbers radio button.
