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 provides an overview of the four different types of inventory transfers located within Skustack’s Transfer tab. Transfers are a key aspect of managing inventory in any warehouse or distribution center.

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.

The One Way Transfer module within Skustack’s Transfers tab is a simple way to receive multiple items/units into bins or to remove them from bins. While this can be done individually from the Product tab through a simple adjustment, a One Way Transfer groups the items together, making it easier to trace and filter by the Transfer ID.

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.
