Warehouse To Warehouse Transfer (Admin Portal)

This article is about the current Admin portal version. If you are looking for the App version, please follow this link: the App version.


Overview

The Warehouse To Warehouse Transfer helps you manage the transfer of inventory between warehouses. When such a transfer request is created, the From Warehouse is the warehouse you are transferring the items from. The Destination Warehouse is the warehouse you are transferring the items to. In contrast to the One Way Transfer, a Warehouse to Warehouse Transfer requires you to specify both an In and Out warehouse location. The Interim Warehouse will store your items while they are in transit until the transfer is complete.


Manage Warehouse Transfers

The Skustack Admin portal lets you easily search for existing Warehouse Transfers, as well as create new ones.


Search Warehouse Transfers

To search Warehouse Transfers, follow the steps below:

  1. Navigate to the Skustack Admin portal at https://xx.skustack.com (replace “xx” with your server ID or team name).

  2. Enter your login credentials.

  3. On the left, select Transfer > Manage Warehouse Transfers.

  4. Configure your Default filters to make sure that the results display exactly what you need.

  5. Click Search. Each filter you apply gets highlighted. If a filter is gray or not displayed at all, it’s not active.

  6. To manage the columns in the grid, click the three dots icon on the top right and select Customize Columns. You can:

    1. Reorder columns by dragging them up or down in the list;

    2. Hide columns by clicking the Trash icons;

    3. Add columns by clicking Add column.

  7. To arrange the data in a different order, use the Sort by menu.

  8. To save your filtering and sorting options, click Save view, enter a Name, and click Save.

  9. Click the + icon at the lower right-hand corner to create a new transfer, or select a transfer from the grid and access the Actions menu to either Export To Excel, Cancel, or Delete it.



Create Warehouse Transfers

Inventory transfers can be created per product or for multiple products simultaneously.

Warehouse Transfers are recorded in the Inventory Movement of the products and can always be checked for reference.


Individually

  1. Navigate to Products > Open a product > Toolbox > Warehouse > Transfers > Edit.


  2. Click the + icon.

  3. Enter the warehouse you want to transfer from and the warehouse you want to transfer to. Then, enter the number of units to transfer, a transfer reason, inventory cost (optional), and click Transfer.


This option is currently limited to warehouses that are not bin-enabled and changes are reflected immediately. Transfers for bin-enabled warehouses should be handled through the Skustack app or created In Bulk with a status Pending.


In Bulk

  1. Navigate to Transfer > Manage Warehouse Transfers.

  2. Click on the green + icon in the lower right-hand corner.

  3. Populate the Title and Company fields.

  4. Select the warehouse from which the product will be shipped.

  5. Select an interim warehouse through which the product will be transferred.

  6. Select a destination warehouse where the product will be stored.

  7. (Optional) Add Notes.


  8. Click on the blue arrow icon to continue.

  9. Add products to your request. This can either be done manually or through a file upload.


  10. Add the desired quantities in the grid, and click Finish.


  11. A success message will indicate that the transfer is created and the request will now be listed as Pending. Alternatively, you can create transfers with a Pending status using a file import.


  12. Click View Transfer Details.

  13. When the transfer request is ready to be confirmed, access the Actions menu and click Set Requested.

  14. When the items are ready to ship, access the Actions menu and click Set Shipped. The inventory will transfer over to the interim warehouse.

    • To edit the shipped quantity, set the transfer to Unshipped, edit the quantity, and set it as Shipped again.

  15. When the transfer is ready to be received, access the Actions menu and select Receive Shipment. This will transfer the inventory quantities to the destination warehouse.

By utilizing the filters on the Warehouse Inventory Transfers page, various employees can be assigned to handle different stages of the transfer process. For instance, the employee responsible for shipping the items can navigate to the Status > Requested filter to specifically view transfer requests awaiting shipment. This filter will display all requests ready for shipping, allowing the employee to oversee the shipping process and update the transfer status accordingly.
