How to hand over a branch transfer between shifts
A transfer stays open until the receiving branch can account for what arrived.
By the Suite.ng team · ·
Record the dispatch
Give the transfer a reference and record the sending branch, destination and items expected. List units individually when your stock is tracked that way. Assign a receiver and keep a record of when custody changed. The sending and receiving teams should refer to the same transfer.
Confirm what landed
Have the receiver record what actually arrived, including any shortages or damaged items, against that reference. Set a next action and owner for each mismatch. At closing, separate items still in transit from items the destination has accepted so stock counts reflect what staff can actually sell.
