- The Inventory Transfer Request is no longer the focus of the Inventory Transfer Process - the Inventory Transfer Request Item is.
- Inventory Transfer Request Items are 'Ordered', 'Shipped' and 'Received'.
- This replaces the 'Requested', 'Transfer Out' and 'Transfer In' transactions in order to standardize similar transactions with Purchase Orders.
- In the past, Inventory Transfer Request Items were associated with, and expected to remain with, Inventory Transfer Requests. In reality, Inventory Transfer Request Items are independent items; therefor, they should be managed as independent items. They are still introduced into the Inventory Transfer Process via the Inventory Transfer Request; however, once they are 'Ordered', they will be managed as items that can then be regrouped and Shipped, then Received.
