Inventory Transfer Request. You should Try It.

If you are managing inventory across multiple warehouses you know how important it is to be able to keep track on items and quantities to the level of the single item. To make your inventory even better organized, SAP Business One provides you with Inventory Transfer Request. An internal document that allows you to record the need in inventory transfer without posting an inventory transaction. It updates the ‘Ordered’ and ‘Available’ quantity in the target warehouse (the same as sales order, production order and reserve invoice) and the respective accumulators in the source warehouse. The Inventory Transfer Request is available under Inventory > Inventory Transactions and can be generated also from within Sales Order, A/R Reserve Invoice, and Production Order. In addition, in certain scenarios, the MRP wizard may recommend creating an inventory transfer request.

Ship to Company or to Warehouse?

What’s your business like? And the warehouses? Single warehouse right by the office? Multiple warehouses in various locations? these details are most important when setting the shipping address in purchasing documents. To ensure that the purchased goods arrive to the right place SAP Business One enables you to define whether to user the warehouse address or company address in purchasing documents: When selected, the address of the warehouse that appears in the first line of the purchasing document is automatically set as the “Ship To” address in the document. If this option is not selected, the “Ship To” address is the one defined in Company Details > General tab.
