Transfer inventory WHUH?

Question

Please explain:

TRANSFER OUT (we select the items to send back) ISSUE (ISSUE ALL) (huh?) COMMIT takes the items out of inventory?

What is the difference between ISSUE and COMMIT?

If I print after we ISSUE, then the report (PORcv.xml --I use the one from customer source with the supplier address on it) has the $$ totals on it including the amount of shipping (so we can get the proper refund from the supplier). We include this with the shipment for the supplier's use.

After we hit COMMIT, then the report prints with NO $$ and NO qty issued. huh? The order has a ZERO total.

So we ISSUE....then wait for the supplier to credit us and then commit? if the items do not get taken out of inventory until you commit, then you oversell......

I am so confused, The documentation on this S*T*I*N*K*S.

Thanks.

I can help with the difference between issue & commit...

When you Issue a transfer out order, the stock will show as on hand/committed and not available for sale.

When you commit, the qty on hand will change.

For a return to vendor, I would issue ASAP and commit when the product was no longer in my possession.

How will that transfer be seen financially?

The issue reserves the item (we have boxed it). The COMMIT permanently removes it (we shipped it). What is we are then expecting a CREDIT from the supplier? What if we are expecting a REPLACEMENT from the supplier?

Thanks Tom. You are most helpful as usual.
