How to Create a Transfer

This step-by-step guide describes how to create a transfer transaction. A transfer is an internal transaction used to move inventory from one warehouse to another within your organisation. Inventory can be shipped and/or received against a transfer. When a transfer is shipped a corresponding receiving event is generated in your system for the specified Destination Warehouse.

To record a shipment against a transfer follow the step-by-step guide in How to Ship Against an Order. This is similar to shipping against a linked transaction except the corresponding receipt is generated in your account instead of another Croptracker user's account.
