Detail Transfer (IC22.2)

Use Detail Transfer (IC22.2) to directly enter detail transfer transactions into the Inventory Control application. Transactions are entered in this form by a user-defined document ID. Transactions are released (updated) to the Inventory Control application by document ID using the Release form action. This process lets you review and adjust transactions as many times as necessary before they are updated to inventory.

Processing Effect

When transactions are released, stock-on-hand inventory quantities are updated immediately. However, if you are creating an intransit document where items are being transported from one company and location to another, quantities to where items are transferred are considered intransit until you receive and release them in IC23.1 (Intransit Receiving).

More Information

This form is similar to IC22.1 (Transfers) where you enter item transfers by item number and receipt. However, this form lets you enter reason codes for tracking purposes and enter comments if needed. For catch weight items, you must enter both the stock unit of measure and secondary unit of measure quantities. This unit of measure calculates a variance percentage and displays a message if it exceeds the item's variance tolerance defined in the IC11.1 (Item Master) UOM form.

If items are set up for lot or serial number tracking, this form walks you through required detail forms, IC29.1 (Lots) or IC29.2 (Serials). You must complete item detail forms before you can release a document. Otherwise, a message indicates out of balance. To access item detail forms after the initial transfer, you must first view the document using this form. Then, select the Walkthru form action.

You can transfer from multiple bins for lot or serial number tracked items when this form transfers you to required lot or serial forms. However, for a normal item, you must enter each bin transfer as a separate line transactions.

Before you enter item transfers you must first enter the company, from location, document ID, to location, date/time, and general ledger posting date.

Date and time fields default to the system date unless otherwise specified.

If you are creating an intransit document, do the following:

  • Set the intransit flag to Yes.
  • Enter the estimated delivery date.
  • Optionally, specify the number of cartons in the transfer.

The general ledger posting date indicates to which general ledger period to post transactions. You can post transactions to any general ledger period as long as the general ledger posting date is within 35 days (before or after) of the current inventory period end date defined in IC01.2 (Period End Dates). If the general ledger posting date is later than the current general ledger period, transactions remain on the general ledger file until the appropriate general ledger period becomes current. Transactions are passed to the General Ledger application by running IC130 (General Ledger Interface).
