Transfer shipping

The order is set to shipped stage when the WL Entry Batch Shipping Reportis run. Backordering is also handled. The shipped date, package count, ship via, and actual freight are updated. Warehouse transfer lines that are zero shipped change the transfer back to Stage 1 (Ordered) and the lines are put on hold.

Your TWL administrator can use the WT Order Exception Report and set the Not Approved Line Items option to Yes to identify the zero shipped lines. If the lines are approved, you can reprint the transfer and resend the order to TWL. Warehouse transfers that are zero shipped are processed in the same manner that Sales Order Entry orders are handled. This graphic shows the General Ledger entries that are made for the transfer:

When a transfer is shipped from a TWL warehouse and an exception occurs, the Transfer Exception Receipt Entry function is used to resolve the exception. The Transfer Exception Receipt Entry exceptions are always adjusted in the shipping warehouse because the receiving warehouse has possession of the inventory and can verify the errors.

If a shipment is received short, then short-ship information is displayed in the Transfer Exception Receipt Entry for the shipping warehouse. A message is displayed: WL Quantity Received < Shipped; Press Space Bar to Update (6513).

A Transfer Exception Receipt Entry cycle count request is created in TWL for the shipping warehouse. This action checks the quantity in the location where the transferred product was picked. The Transfer Exception Receipt Entry cycle count request is created because the receiving warehouse initiates the discrepancy. Use the TWL system to count the product with the discrepancy and to initiate a stock adjustment.

If there is no inventory in the location, a Transfer Exception Receipt Entry cycle count wave is also created, so that the empty location can be verified. Quantity in Distribution SX.e is adjusted when the stock adjustment is uploaded from TWL.
