Issue Requests and Transfer Process

The Issue Requests and Transfer process is a very cyclical one. In the situation where an issue request is made, the process flows is as follows:

1. A request is made by a cost center in need.

2. The request is received by the potential transferring cost center. The status is identified as Not Booked | Requested.

3. The transferring cost center reviews the items requested and can do one of four thing:

   • Approve the requested items

   • Modify the totals requested

   • Zero out all the totals

   • Delete the transfer

4. The transferring cost center books the request changing its status to Not Booked | Delivered.

5. The requesting cost center receives the booked transfer in the Not Booked | Delivered status.

6. The requesting cost center either approves the transfer (modifications and all) or declines the transfer.

User rights determine if a store can accept or decline the request or transfer. In such case, the request or transfer is automatic. Only after the requesting store accepts the transfer does the system modify any stock on hand totals. If the requesting store declines the transfer, stock on hand totals do not change.
