Creating Transfer Orders
There are two (2) ways to create a new transfer order;
New and
Wizard. New is a manual process that you must input all of the information and items manually. The Wizard walks you through creating a TO based on your location's quantity needs.
Start by selecting Wizard in the Merchandising/Transfer Order menu. This will bring up the Transfer Order Wizard screen, and Step 1.
Step 1: Select your
Transfer Type, name your transfer order and enter an effective date.
- Transfer- In: Transfer of inventory into the store.
- Transfer- Out: Transfer of inventory out of the store.
- Inter-Location: Creates two Transfer Orders, one goes Out of one location and one goes IN to another location.
Step 2: Select the Source (where it's coming from) and Destination (where it's going to) locations.
Step 3: Select the Department(s) and/or Categories to transfer items from.
Step 4: Select how to pull the quantities to transfer.
- Order items based on store's re-order information: This will calculate the quantity needed based on the minimum reorder point and maximum restock levels, and what the current quantity on hand (QOH) is at. If the QOH is more than the minimum reorder point, then the item will not be placed on the order.
- Order all items at a fixed quantity: This allows you to set a fixed quantity for all items on the order.
- Order items that have recently sold: This will order the same quantity of an item that have sold between certain dates. For instance, if you sold 5 of item X between 1/1/2020 and 1/31/2020, then 5 will be placed on the transfer order.
Step 5: Generate the order. This will not PLACE the order, only create it. You can still add and remove items from the order after it's created. Verify the order is correct, and when ready, click Place Order. You will be asked to verify that you want to place the order, if so, click ok.

Sending the order to your supplier or other location must be done outside of OpSuite. There are two (2) ways to download the order to send to your supplier.
- Print Transfer Order - This will generate a PDF order form for the Master TO and any individual store TO's (if multi-location).
- Export BarTender - This will generate a CSV file containing all of the information from the TO.
