how to transfer stock between branches in billing software

Step 1: standardize product master

Ensure both branches use the same SKU, name, and unit. Without this, transfer accuracy drops immediately.

Step 2: define transfer roles

Set who can:

  • Create request
  • Approve transfer
  • Dispatch stock
  • Confirm receipt

This prevents unauthorized movement and improves accountability.

Step 3: use request-approve-dispatch-receive flow

Avoid direct quantity edits. Use a documented flow so each transfer has:

  • source branch
  • destination branch
  • item and quantity
  • date/time and user actions

Step 4: reconcile daily

At day-end, verify pending transfers and received quantities. Resolve partial dispatches quickly.

Step 5: track transfer KPIs

Monitor turnaround time, pending transfers, and frequent shortage categories.
