Overview
The Warehouse Transfer process helps you manage and track the transfer of inventory between warehouses. When a transfer request is created, the From Warehouse is the source warehouse from which you are transferring the items. 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.
