Maintaining Transfer Items

When you generate the list of items to be included in an automatic purchase order batch, items that are identified to be transferred from another warehouse which has excess stock (rather than purchased from a supplier) are displayed on the Transfer Item screen. You use this procedure to maintain the automatically generated transfer items and to manually add transfer items to a batch.

Display the Automatic Purchase Order screen for the batch you want to maintain.

Refer to "Maintaining Automatic Purchase Order Lines".
