Manage production transfers between sites

Why a tracked transfer matters

Without a formal transfer, the origin site stock stays inflated while the destination stock does not reflect what is actually there. The transfer draws down the origin site and automatically creates a pending receipt at the destination.

Creating a transfer

You can generate a transfer directly from a production order that was just run, or create an independent one by selecting batches already in stock. Either way, the document lists the batches involved, the quantities and the destination site.

A transfer can include several products together, useful when one van carries different semi-finished products to the same site on the same run.

Receiving the transfer on site

The destination site sees the incoming transfer among pending receipts and confirms it by checking quantity and condition, exactly like a delivery from an external supplier.

• Transfer shown as a pending receipt
• Check quantity and condition on arrival
• Confirm to bring goods into stock

End-to-end traceability

Every transferred batch keeps its full history, from the original production to consumption at the final site: essential in case of a product recall or an inspection, since it lets you know exactly where each batch ended up.

Passaggi

8. Confirm the receipt to bring batches into stock.

Problemi frequenti

• The destination site does not see the transfer → the transfer was not confirmed at origin → check the document status before contacting support.
• The received batch quantity differs from what was sent → breakage or loss during transport not declared → record the difference at receiving with a note.
• Same batch drawn down twice → transfer confirmed twice by mistake → check the batch movement history before repeating the action.
• Expiry inconsistent between the two sites → production date manually edited at receiving → never alter the original batch date, use notes instead.
