The following is a list of field descriptions for the IN Transfer Entry form. Many of the descriptions include links to other topics that provide additional information about or related to the topic.

Seq#

Enter NEW to create a new entry or enter the batch sequence number of an existing entry you wish to display.

Date

Enter the transfer date for this material. This field defaults to the current date.

From Loc

Units

Enter the number of units to be transferred. This may be a positive or negative amount, but cannot be 0.00.

If the amount entered here will cause the On Hand quantity to go below 0.00, and the 'Display Warning if Qty On Hand is Negative' check box is selected in IN Company Parameters, a warning displays that the transfer will result in a negative ‘On Hand’ quantity at the source location. However, entries can still be posted.

This field defaults the current average, last, or standard unit cost for the material depending on the Cost Method specified for the ‘From’ location.

Unit Cost may only be overridden if the Allow Unit Cost Overrides option is checked (IN Company Parameters). Override value must be equal to or greater than 0.00.

Note: If Cost Method is Std Unit Cost, and the amount entered here is not equal to the Std Unit Cost, the difference will be posted to the appropriate Cost Variance account (defined in IN Locations or IN Location Category Override).

Indicates what quantity the unit cost represents. This can only be overridden if the Allow Unit Cost Overrides option is checked (IN Company Parameters).
