Transfer Stock Within Warehouse

Transfer stock from one bin to another in a warehouse, in Foreground or Background mode.

You can transfer stock from one bin to another in a Warehouse using the following ways:

Foreground: Record stock transfer when you do an actual transfer of the material from one bin to another within a storage location.
Background: When you want to move the stock, specify the material quantity that needs to be moved. The system then checks the bin that can accommodate the material quantity and allocates it to a specific bin.

Note:

A stock type indicator is displayed when stock exists in different stock types (Unrestricted, Quality Inspection, or Blocked) within the same or different bins.

Follow steps 1 to 9 for Foreground mode or steps 10 to 18 for Background mode.
