This routine is used whenever goods are moved from one warehouse to another, without printing any documents, (e.g., if you have several logical warehouses within the same building).
Note: If you want to print documents when you move stock between warehouses, you use the Internal Replenishment Order (IRO) routine. See About creating internal replenishment orders (IBS Stock Control).
Transit stock
You can also use this routine to move goods from transit stock to normal stock, between warehouses or within the same warehouse. Transit stock is registered when the Back to Back (BtB) routine is used to deliver goods, from your supplier to your end customer, via the transit stock area of your warehouse. If the quantity delivered to your customer is less than the quantity received from the supplier, the remaining quantity is stored in your transit stock as surplus.
Note: You cannot sell goods that are located in transit stock. You can only move the goods to normal stock by using this routine, or decrease the amount of goods by entering an inventory transaction. See About working with inventory transactions.
Created transactions
The transactions created from this process immediately update, throughout the system, the time axis and stock-on-hand values for the warehouses involved in the transaction.
All transactions entered are stored in the Inventory transaction file which you can view at any time.
Note: For movements involving non-conformity stock, see About non-conformity stock.
