The transfer lifecycle
A transfer in Vendee Pro moves through a clean set of states: draft, in-transit, partially received, received, or cancelled. Each transition is logged. Stock leaves the source location when you ship and arrives at the destination when you receive. If shipment and arrival are not the same day, the in-transit state holds the inventory accurately so neither location double-counts.
You can transfer single SKUs, partial cases, or entire shipments. Quantities are entered at the variant level, so a multi-color, multi-size transfer is a normal flow rather than a workaround.
Auto-generated transfer drafts from PO splits
When a multi-location PO is partially received, Vendee Pro auto-creates transfer drafts to move stock from the receiving location to each of the other intended locations. You don’t need to remember to write the transfers; they’re prepared for you. Review, adjust quantities if a partial split is needed, and ship them on the schedule that fits your operation.
Partial receiving
Trucks lose pallets. Stockrooms find one short. Vendee Pro accepts partial receipts on transfers the same way it accepts them on POs: receive what arrived, leave the rest open. The remainder stays attached to the same transfer document so the audit trail is one continuous chain.
Cancel cleanly
If a transfer was created in error or never actually shipped, cancel it. The system reverses any inventory movements and marks the transfer as cancelled with the reason recorded. There is no orphaned stock, no phantom in-transit row, no manual cleanup.
Operations across many locations
Multi-store retail lives or dies on transfer hygiene. Vendee Pro is built for it: dozens of locations are not a special case. Transfers, like POs and inventory, are scoped to your account and visible to authorized users only. Each location’s in-transit and on-hand quantities reconcile back to the system of record.
Frequently asked questions
Can a transfer span more than two locations?
A single transfer document is between two locations: source and destination. For one-to-many redistribution, multiple transfers are created (and from a PO partial receipt, they’re generated automatically).
How does in-transit inventory show in reports?
In-transit stock is tracked separately from on-hand. Reports can include or exclude it depending on the question. The default for daily on-hand reports is to show received-only.
Can I undo a received transfer?
Yes. Like PO receipts, transfer receipts can be undone. The system reverses the adjustments and reopens the transfer.
Does the integration push transfers to my POS?
Inventory adjustments resulting from transfers propagate to the connected system through the standard integration. The transfer itself is a Vendee Pro concept; the POS sees the on-hand changes at each location.
