Transfer Orders

Are the transfer of items from one Warehouse to another. When the transfer Order is made stock of from warehouse is deducted and to warehouse is added even the transaction has not placed yet or it takes some time for actual transaction, isn’t it wrong?

The problem is the user is left with option either load the item and make transfer order which immediately increases stock from other side and consumption may happen due to wrong data or vice-versa. To control this warehouse of type Transit is used.

Transit Warehouse

The intermediate warehouse used during transfer order where from warehouse item is deducted and added to transit warehouse instead of to warehouse directly with control of no of day required to complete transit with various mode of transport to generate delivery date.

Setup
