The everyday problem
Moving goods between locations is more than changing where a box sits. The people sending and receiving it need a shared reference, quantity and unit so later location-wise reports can be explained.
A workable process
Agree which transfer workflow your setup supports and who records each step. Prepare the item list against the physical goods, identify source and destination, and retain the reference with the consignment. The receiving person should compare the delivery with the documented movement.
A practical example
If a branch asks for six boxes and the sender records six pieces, a signed note saying only six does not resolve the ambiguity. Including the unit and identifying any partial delivery gives both teams the information needed to correct the record.
Before you finish
Check both location records after the supported process is completed. Record shortages or damage through the agreed exception procedure instead of inventing a second transfer to make the screen match.
Try this check with your team
Use an illustrative source balance of 30 and destination balance of 5. A transfer of 8 should leave 22 and 13 before other movements, while the combined quantity stays 35. Match that record with the physically moved goods.
What the result tells you
If combined quantity changes unexpectedly, inspect whether a purchase, sale or adjustment was used instead of the intended transfer. If the combined total is right but the location is wrong, inspect the selected source and destination.
