Transferring a stock item between warehouses

Warehouse -> Documents -> New document -> Inventory movement 

Note: You can create the desired warehouses by going to the “Warehouse” menu > “Warehouses” and selecting “New Warehouse.” Enter the name, account, and address (as needed), and save the warehouse.

Inventory movement between warehouses is used when:

  • the company has a main warehouse where purchased goods are received and one or more additional warehouses at separate locations
  • goods are delivered for resale under consignment terms

Go to Warehouse -> Documents -> New document -> Inventory movement 

Adding a new inventory movement

  1. Document number – automatically generated by the system
  2. Date – the date of the inventory transfer
  3. From which warehouse – the warehouse from which the goods are taken out
  4. To which warehouse – the warehouse into which the goods are received
  5. Item – only items with stock can be added
  6. Quantity– the quantity of goods to be moved
  7. Add new line – to add another item
  8. Save movement
The “Cost” field displays the cost per unit. The total amount is displayed after the warehouse transaction is saved.

Under Settings -> Environment settings -> Warehouse settings, you can define how the cost of goods is handled during transfers between warehouses.
When a warehouse transfer is saved, a financial transaction is generated showing the changes in the warehouse accounts in monetary terms.

From the Actions menu, you can open the document for editing, view the delivery note or delete the document. If the warehouse account needs to be changed in the financial transaction, open the document and make the change there. In most cases, there is no need to edit the financial transaction directly in this view.
