The Item Transfers feature enables a more efficient creation and workflow of Item Transfers from the Sending Location to the Receiving Location. Item Transfer forms can be created on the fly or can be populated with custom-made Item Transfer Templates so that routine transfers are easier to record. The current status of a Transfer will be listed next to the Transfer form on the 'Transfers' tab so that both the Sending and Receiving Locations are aware of where the Item Transfer is in the Transfer Workflow. Users who have access to this page will only be able to see Transfer Templates and Transfer forms for the Locations that they have access to based on their User record.
Once a Transfer form is created and saved, it will have a status of 'In Progress.’ The User will then send the Transfer form to the Receiving Location. This form will have the updated status of 'Pending' until the Users from the Receiving Location mark the form as 'Completed' or 'Rejected'. Only Users with approval access will be able to approve the form and complete the process. Click here to learn more about Transfer Status and Workflow.
Forms that are rejected or canceled are required to include a comment explaining the issues noted with the form. These comments will be recorded on the form for all Users at both the Sending and Receiving Locations to view.

Location Access
Visibility of transfers that have been completed or approved is determined by a user's access to the sending and/or receiving location.
Users with access to the sending location can view and access transfers that are in progress and rejected in the list view.
Users with access to the sending or receiving location can view and access transfers that are pending, completed, and approved in the list view.
Users with access to the receiving location can not view or access transfers that are in-progress or rejected.
All users with the appropriate user permissions can open transfer forms, regardless of their status. However, they may only edit or manager transfers for the locations that they have permission to access.
Any transfer that a user does not have access to view will not appear in the transfers list.
