3.1.2. List Transfer Orders

Transfer Orders are used to move Inventory between Sites. They are distinct from Inter-Site Transfers in three primary ways: 1) you can add multiple Items to a single Transfer Order and transfer all the Items at once; 2) all Transfer Order transfers involve a Transit Site, for tracking Inventory while it is "in transit"; and 3) there are reports (i.e., paperwork) associated with Transfer Orders. To access the master list of Transfer Orders, select the "List Transfer Orders" option. The following screen will appear:
