Reviewing Transfers from within Purchasing

This view cannot be printed or exported, but will allow users to review transfers, and make edits as needed.

1. From within Yellow Dog navigate to Transfers under Purchasing



 

      2. Users can use the filter options to select specific stores, issue date range, and Transfer status’. Users can double click on any transfer to open the transfer editor to view detail on how much of what items are being included.



Notes on Editing Transfers:

Users with the appropriate permissions will be able to edit the quantities of an issued/committed transfer. Once a transfer has been accepted however, the quantities are locked in and cannot be adjusted. If a transfer has been accepted with the incorrect items/quantities, a reverse transfer should be created to send the product back to the issuing store, and the transfer should be recreated.

Editing Issued/Committed Transfers:

Using the steps above, filter to the transfer with a status of issued and double click on the transfer to open the transfer editor. If the Accepted quantity appears in a yellow box, and you are able to click into it your user has permissions to update the quantities.

Once the accepted quantities are accurate, select Accept Transfer in the bottom. If you are unable to edit the quantity or select Accept, a team member with the appropriate permissions will have to assist.

NOTE: If you are unable to accept the entirety of the issued quantity, adjust the accepted quantity to reflect the quantity you are actually accepting. Any amount that is unable to be accepted will be accounted for in your accounting export as a shortage and will appear in the Shortage column of the transfer editor, and transfer reporting.




Editing Accepted Transfers:

If a transfer has been accepted but has incorrect information – either the incorrect stores were selected, or the incorrect items/quantity are on the transfer a reverse transfer will be required to send the product back to the issuing store, so the transfer can be recreated.

Using the steps above, filter to the transfer with a status of Accepted. Highlight the transfer and on the right side of the transfer screen select Create New Reverse Transfer based on Selected. 




The system will ask you to confirm that you would like to create a Reverse Transfer -select Yes Copy



 Next you will see the transfer editor open with the To store & From store reversed. Select Issue at the bottom, and if your user has the permissions, you can also select Accept. If you do not have the appropriate permissions a team member will have to assist.
