Transfers (Transfer items (goods) between warehouse locations)
A transfer order looks much like any other order in MS Dynamics 365 Business Central application.
However, behind the scenes, it is very different.
One fundamental aspect that makes transfers in planning different from purchase and production
orders
(these types of orders represent stock replenishment actions) is that a transfer line represents
demand and supply at the same time.

The outbound part, shipped from the old location, is in demand.
 The inbound part to be received at the new location is supplied at that stock location.

Structure of Transfer Order
 Own or foreign ("hired")

Bin
See bins on the next slides
A bin is the smallest specification of a storage position, which is therefore no longer divisible
!!!

Locations I – stock (part of inventory management)



Locations II –setup for locations Blue or Red
In our models we will use only the Blue and Red locations.
The other locations are set up for Advanced Warehousing

Locations III – setup for location White (Advanced Warehouse Management)
ADCS = Automated Data Capture System
 The Automated Data Capture System (ADCS) solution provides
a way for Business Central to communicate with handheld devices
through web services. It would be best if you worked with a Microsoft partner
who can provide the link between the web service and the specific
handheld device.

Bins I.  (Location White in our demo BC version)
Bin  numbers. The bins are the smallest area (position) of the warehouse.
Bins have several attributes (bin type, ranking, zone  code, weight, volume, position)
Bin Type Code : you can either put-away
items into bins or you can pick items from bins
