Transfer If You Make a Mistake

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 3,534

Hi:

Within purchasing, sales, and manufacturing documents, you need to of course specify the item's Location Code.

If you don't, you will very quickly lose track of your goods.

Since it is so easy to forget to enter the Location Code, I have two questions.

First, if your item is placed in the wrong location, what is the easiest means of transferring it to the correction location?

Secondly, where in Business Central can you enter the default location for purchasing, sales, and manufacturing documents so that hopefully this issue does not occur?

Thanks!

John

    The easiest way is to do it by using an item reclassification journal if you do not use advances warehouse management. If you use advanced warehouse management you will have to use a transfer order.

    You can enter default locations for customers, vendors and production orders. So with that configuration in place you reduce the risk of posting to the incorrect location.

    Hi, you should enable Location mandatory in Inventory Setup.
