How To: Correct a Stock Site Transfer made in Error

If you have made a stock transfer between sites and it is not correct you cannot use minus figures to reverse it as this will only move a further quantity of items to the destination site. The user must switch sites and then transfer the stock back.

  1. Make a note of the stock code and quantities transferred in error, you can re-print the stock transfer report see How To: View and Print a Previous Stock Transfer Report.
  2. Go to [ System Operations | Change Stock Control Site ].
  3. If you have any windows open the system will warn you that they will all close, click on Yes to continue.
  4. In the Change Site drop down select the destination site.
  5. Click on OK.
  6. Open a Stock screen (show me how).
  7. Open the [ Stock | Adjustments ] tab.
