The easiest way to track your items out for repair is to create a new inventory location and use the <\/span>Transfer Stock<\/span><\/i> feature to move items to this location while they\u2019re being repaired. <\/span><\/p>\n

This method doesn\u2019t remove the item from your inventory and it will still count towards your quantity on hand while it\u2019s out for repair. Keep this in mind when doing a stock count!<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

To create a new location for your items out for repair:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open the <\/span>Settings<\/span><\/i> window (either through the shortcut from the homepage, or <\/span>Main Menu > Options > Settings<\/span><\/i>)<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Scroll down until you see the Manage Inventory Locations button<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. In this window, add a new location to the list that you\u2019ll use as your \u201crepair\u201d location <\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Click <\/span>Save & Close<\/span><\/i><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    When your item goes out for repair, you can transfer the item from its current location to the \u201crepair\u201d location using the <\/span>Transfer Stock<\/span><\/i> feature:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Go to <\/span>Main Menu > Inventory > Transfer Stock<\/span><\/i><\/li>\n
    2. Select the item that\u2019s out for repair in the <\/span>Item<\/span><\/i> column<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Add the \u201crepair\u201d location in the <\/span>To Location <\/span><\/i>column<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Click <\/span>Send Transfer<\/span><\/i><\/li>\n
    5. Click <\/span>Receive Transfer<\/span><\/i> to complete the transfer of the item to the new \u201crepair\u201d location<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      When your item is returned to you, use the <\/span>Transfer Stock<\/span><\/i> feature to move your item from the \u201crepair\u201d location back to its location in your inventory. <\/span><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
