Lesson 8 / 15

Send–receive transfers & discrepancies

Control transit, damaged and missing units without inflating destination stock.

On this page · Jump to a section

Before you begin

Creator can access both branches; sender owns source, receiver owns destination, and shipment references are ready.

Where to go

Stock Transfers → Create / Send / Receive

Visible menus may vary with language, permissions, app version and shop configuration.

Follow these steps

  1. Create a draft with source, destination, SKU/variant and quantity; verify unreserved availability before confirmation.
  2. Send removes unreserved source stock as TRANSFER_OUT. It becomes in transit, not destination stock.
  3. Receive records actual sellable, damaged/quarantined and missing quantities with reason and note. Missing units remain visible evidence.
  4. After an unknown result, check the original request and reuse its idempotency key; never create a replacement from another tab or device.

How to verify success

Source, transit/missing and destination reconcile, with an owner for every discrepancy.

Limits & things to check

Cancellation after send is not a receipt back. Follow the actual document state instead of hand-adjusting balances to close it.
