# Stock Transfers

Stock transfers let you move inventory from one location to another. This is useful when one location is running low and another has surplus stock.

## When to Use Stock Transfers

- One location is low on a product while another has extra.
- You are opening a new location and need to distribute inventory.
- You want to balance stock levels across all your stores.

## How to Create a Transfer Request

Follow these steps to transfer stock between locations.

1. Go to **Inventory** or **Stock Transfers** from the sidebar menu.
2. Tap **New Transfer**.
3. Select the **source location** (where stock is coming from).
4. Select the **destination location** (where stock is going).
5. Add the products and quantities you want to transfer.
6. Review the details and submit the transfer request.

## Approving a Transfer

Transfers may require approval before they take effect.

1. Open the pending transfer from the transfer list.
2. Review the products, quantities, and locations.
3. Tap **Approve** to confirm the transfer.
4. Stock levels update automatically at both locations.

If a transfer looks incorrect, you can reject it with a note.

## Tracking Transfer History

You can view all past transfers from the transfer history screen. Each record shows:

| Detail | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Transfer ID** | A unique reference number for the transfer. |
| **Date** | When the transfer was created. |
| **Source** | The location that sent the stock. |
| **Destination** | The location that received the stock. |
| **Items** | The products and quantities transferred. |
| **Status** | Whether the transfer is pending, approved, or rejected. |

## Tips for Managing Transfers

- **Review transfers regularly** to keep all locations well stocked.
- **Approve quickly** so stock levels stay accurate across locations.
- **Use transfer history** to spot patterns in how stock moves.
- **Plan ahead** for busy seasons by transferring stock early.
