Creating a new inter-warehouse transfer with Serial numbers

Companies use different warehouses for their operations. This enables them to optimize work processes and allows for different ways of managing data. When data is exchanged between warehouses, documents for an inter-warehouse transfer are created. The stock at the issuing warehouse is reduced, while the stock at the receiving warehouse is increased.

This chapter shows how to create an inter-warehouse transfer document with Serial numbers

HINT For more information on inter-warehouse transfers, see the chapter Inter-warehouse transfers in the technical guide.
