While making a Transfer Request, or Stocking Transfer Request Items, the Existing Inventory within the Destination Inventory Area can be Split via the ‘Inventory Transfer Request’ screen (when the Status of the Transfer Request is ‘New’), or the ‘Inventory Stocking’ screen.

While Pulling Inventory for Transfer Request Items, the Existing Inventory within the Source Inventory Area can be split via the ‘Inventory Pull’ screen.

  • Inventory Items can be Split, Merged, or Moved when it’s discovered that the Unique Inventory Attributes, for a Quantity of the Inventory Item, have changed.

    • For example: During the Inventory Transfer Request process, the Inventory Pull process, or the Inventory Stocking process, when the Existing Inventory is examined, if it’s discovered that the Product is located in an Inventory Location that is different than that listed in the system; or, if some of the Quantity has a different Lot Number, Serial Number, NDC, Manufacturer, or Expiration Date than what is indicated in the system, the ‘Split Inventory Item' menu option can be used to make corrections from within the ‘Inventory Transfer Request’ screen, the ‘Inventory Pull’ screen, or the ‘Inventory Stocking’ screen.
