Warehouse Transfer#

Moves on-hand stock between warehouses (or between locations / bins within a warehouse). Also covers work-order-to-work-order material transfers.

Types#

• Warehouse-to-warehouse — physical move; on-hand decrements at the source, increments at the destination. Serials / lots move with the quantity.
• Location-to-location — same warehouse, different bin. Same accounting effect (none) but different GL journal treatment where warehouses map to different divisions.
• WO-to-WO — transfer allocated / kitted material from one work order to another without physically un-kitting and re-kitting.

Business rules#

• A transfer either commits fully or not at all (single TransactionScope).
• Serial-tracked stock uses TransferSerialHelper to move each serial’s warehouse / location, not just aggregate on-hand.
• Cross-division transfers post an inter-company GL journal — see GL.
• Consigned stock can be transferred but retains its consignment ownership flag.
