The Confirm Whse Transfer (IC27) program is used to:

  • Maintain the list of products by warehouse generated by the Generate Transfer Pre-List (IC25) program.

  • Generate an order from the pre-list that is used to transfer products from your main warehouse to an alternate warehouse.

Once you execute IC27 the Warehouse Selection dialogue panel displays. Select the warehouse for which you wish to view and/or confirm the generated data. Note: If you select a warehouse that a pre-list was not generated for the message ‘There is no pre-list generated for Warehouse xx. Do you wish to exit (Select Yes) or try another whse (select No)? Yes/No’ displays.

If you select:

  • Yes – the message clears and IC27 closes.

  • No – the message clears and the Warehouse Selection dialogue panel redisplays.

Once you select a valid warehouse IC27 opens. Note: Only products generated from the Generate Transfer Pre-List (IC25) program will be listed. It is possible to manually enter products and transfer quantities manually.

The following list defines every field in every section on the Confirm Whse Transfer panel:

  • In the Maintain List section:

    • Product - Enter or select from the query the product that you wish to include in the transfer. You can select a product that exists in the list box or add new products.

    • Transfer Qty - Enter the quantity you wish to transfer from the main warehouse to the current warehouse.

To delete an item from the transfer listing first check that the product is listed in the Product field at the top of the IC27 screen, then press the Delete button. An alternate method of deleting a product from the transfer order is to change its quantity to zero. This method will leave the product displayed on the listing in the lower half of the screen, but indicate that 0 items will be transferred. When the order is generated, products with a 0 quantity are deleted from the transfer to avoid confusion during picking.
