**Name of Feature/Request** : Add Serial data to Item API endoint

**What financial, time savings, or quality of life improvements will occur with this** : Ability to update price lists via API for accuracy and time savings. Ability to create/update POs, Item Receipts, Bills via API.

**Attempted solutions so far** : None

**Digging deep - Any additional Why behind this request / How was this accomplished before Striven** : CSV importing causes excessive formatting restrictions to pull commas, quotes and special characters out of descriptions. Every time a price list is updated, the entire form must be reformatted. If an xlsx import were available it would be better, but an API endpoint for serialized? and serial/lot number for items would be advantageous for many transaction imports.
