Explanation

Tracking items individually at warehouse release and customer delivery maps directly to two settings in SAP Business One's item master: serial numbers enable unit-level identification (each item gets a unique ID), and the "On Release Only" management method triggers that serial number requirement specifically at the outbound transaction - when goods leave the warehouse toward the customer - rather than at every internal stock movement.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (On Every Transaction): This would demand serial number entry at all inventory movements (goods receipts, internal transfers, etc.), which is overkill and doesn't match the requirement of tracking only at release/delivery.
• C (Batches): Batch management tracks groups of items under a shared lot number - it cannot identify individual units, which the question explicitly requires ("individually tracking").

Memory tip: Think Serial = Single unit, Batch = Bulk group. Then pair serial numbers with "Release Only" → items get their ID at the moment they Roll Out the door to the customer. If you need tracking at every internal move, you'd pick "Every Transaction" - but the question only asks about the exit point, so "Release Only" wins.
