Figure 5.2 — The Inventory Transfer form. Drawing to be produced after the UI/UX pass: the header above the lines, one line showing product, from-warehouse, to-warehouse, and quantity with its unit.
- Code and Date — the transfer's number and the day the move belongs to.
- Narrative — why the stock is moving ("branch refill", "consolidating the cold store"); it travels with both sides of the movement.
Each line:
- Product — what is moving.
- From warehouse and To warehouse — the two shelves. They must differ; a transfer to the same warehouse is a story, not a movement.
- Quantity — how much, in the product's unit of measure, named on the line. For a lot-tracked product, posting draws the quantity from the source's lots in FEFO order and lands it in the same lots at the destination — batches are never merged or renamed by a move.
