To create a new Transfer transaction in NorthScope, first expand the Inventory module. Then, click Transactions. This will open the Transactions list view. From the Transactions list view, click the New toolbar icon. This opens a drop-down menu, which displays all active inventory transaction classes for the user to select the transaction class for the transaction. Select any of the transfer transaction classes to open a blank Transfer type record view.

Note: The Units and Weight values must both be positive and cannot be zero.

• Auto-Create New Lots: This field identifies if new lots can be created on the transaction or not. The value defaults from the transaction class properties, but the value is editable.   
• Negative Available Balances: This field identifies if the transaction can change the lot balances to negative or not. The value defaults from the transaction class properties, but the value is editable when the transaction status is New.   Note: If Sales Order allocation preferences are set to either “Available Only” or “Available and On Hand” and a Sales order has been allocated prior to a user updating the Inventory “Negative Available Balances”property, it is possible to draw the lots negative. 
• GL Date: This field defaults to the transaction date, but can be edited. The GL Date must be the same as the transaction date or a later date and the date must reside within an open fiscal period.
• Created by: This field displays the name of the user who created the transaction. This field is for informational use only and cannot be edited.
• Created Date: This field displays the date when the transaction was created. This field is for informational use only and cannot be edited.
• Last User: This field displays the name of the user who updated the transaction the most recently. This field is for informational use only and cannot be edited.
• Last Updated: This field displays the date when the transaction was updated the most recently. The field is for informational use only and cannot be edited.

Saving the Transfer transaction as New will create lots for items that are not assigned to an existing lot and will update the available lot balances of items assigned to existing lots.

Note: A message will be displayed to the user if lot balances are negative and a new transaction is created which would impact those balances positively, however the overall balances would still be negative.  For example, if the lot balance is -10 Cases and a Transfer transaction adds 5 Cases, the overall lot balance would still be negative. The following options are possible workarounds: 

•  Change the Transfer transaction's "Negative Available Balances" property to "Allowed"
•  Change the Transfer transaction to result in a zero or greater inventory balance.
•  Use Cycle Count feature to change inventory balance to zero or greater.
