Move To Transit

Explanation

When you want to move a part, you can choose whether the parts should be moved directly to an inventory location or moved to transit. While the parts are in transit, i.e., under transport, they are not available for reservations. You can only move parts among those inventory locations that belong to the same company.

Prerequisites

• The location to which you are moving the parts must be any of these location types: picking, floor stock or production line.
• In order to be able to move parts to a site other than the default user site, the site must be connected to the user ID in Sites per User window.

System Effects

• Parts are moved among different locations. 
• The Quantity in Transit field value is changed according to your choice. 
• If you entered a note, it is entered in the inventory transaction.
