What is Auto Transfer and how do I configure it?
Auto-Transfer give users the ability to have on hands pull from
a primary location to a secondary satellite location. An example use case for
this would be a primary location that may also have supplemental kiosk
locations. When this feature is enabled and the satellite location sales
product throughout the day on hands will appear in the negative. Overnight when
our maintenance application runs, a transfer will be created in the background
that will transfer the amount sold from the primary location to the satellite location
to bring the on hand back up to 0. Auto-Transfer can be set for an entire store,
level, or for individual items.
As a note- This feature is typically configured
during the implementation process and only the Yellow Dog System User can set
or make updates to the configuration. This is to ensure that users have it
configured correctly and are aware of the ramifications of using this feature
because enabling it makes such a significant database change. Click Here to submit a ticket to support and request to have Auto Transfer enabled.
