A transfer order (TR-000031) moves goods from one warehouse to another like an outbound document: it is picked at the source, travels in transit and is received piece by piece at the destination. The administrator enables it in Settings › Operating rules › Operations › Visible modules › Transfer orders.

Create an order

In Transfers › Transfer orders › New transfer:

  1. Select the source warehouse and the destination warehouse (different).
  2. Add the lines: product, quantity and, if needed, the lot. Next to each line you see whether the source has enough stock.
  3. Select Save draft to continue later, or select who picks and Release for picking.

Statuses

Status What it means
Draft It can be edited.
Released / Picking / Picked It is picked at the source; the goods are staged and reserved by the order.
In transit It has left the source: it is not available in any warehouse.
Receiving / Received The destination is receiving it.
Closed Finished; with a shortage, it is marked With discrepancies.
Canceled It was canceled before leaving; the staged goods returned to their location.

The To pick, In transit, To receive and Closed tabs group the orders. Orders in transit are sorted by age and show the days they have been out.

Print transfer sheet generates the transfer document with a barcode, lines, seal, license plates and signature fields.
