Inventory Transfer

A bin to bin transfer refers to the movement of inventory items from one bin to another within the same warehouse. This type of transfer is typically used to optimize your warehouse space, allowing you to allocate certain inventory items which are more in demand in one area of the warehouse than in others.

This article outlines the four different types of inventory transfers within Skustack's Transfer tab.

Putting products away is an essential part of day-to-day warehouse operations, involving the movement of inventory from temporary receiving bins to permanent bins on the warehouse shelf. Products can be added to the PutAway list directly through the PutAway module within the Skustack app, or they can be added during a PO or Container receiving session.

One Way Transfers are a straightforward method for moving multiple items or units into or out of bins. They differ from Warehouse to Warehouse Transfers in terms that you don’t need to specify a source location when bringing inventory in, or a destination when moving inventory out.

SKU to SKU transfer is a seamless method for transferring physical inventory from one product to another. It is typically used when a product is being rebranded, refurbished, or when inventory needs to be consolidated from one SKU to another. In contrast to the One Way Transfer, the SKU to SKU transfer allows for two-way movements of inventory.

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.
