What are Transfers?

What are Transfers?

In CloudFFL, every time products move — into your shop, out to a customer, or between locations — the system creates a transfer. Transfers are how Odoo tracks the movement of inventory.

Three Types of Transfers

  • Receipts (Incoming) — Products coming into your inventory, usually from a distributor shipment. Created automatically when you confirm a purchase order.
  • Deliveries (Outgoing) — Products going out of your inventory, usually to a customer. Created automatically when you confirm a sales order.
  • Internal Transfers — Products moving within your warehouse, from one location to another (e.g., Back Room to Showroom).

Where to Find Transfers

  • Inventory → Receipts — All incoming shipments
  • Inventory → Deliveries — All outgoing shipments
  • Inventory → Internal Transfers — All internal moves
  • Inventory → Operations → Transfers — Everything in one view

Transfer Statuses

  • Draft — Created but not yet started
  • Ready — Products are available and the transfer can be processed
  • Done — Transfer has been validated and inventory has been updated

Tip: Most transfers are created automatically from sales and purchase orders. You usually do not need to create receipts or deliveries manually.
