Understanding the Setup for Transfer Orders in Russia

You print transfer orders when you transfer stock from one company branch to another branch of the company. When you complete a transfer order, the system creates a sales order for the transferring branch and creates a purchase order for the receiving branch.

In Russia, the purchase order created by the transfer must show the company as the supplier in the From Branch/Plant field so that the Purchase Book report for Russia shows the company as the supplier. For example, if Branch A of Company XYZ transfers stock to Branch B of Company XYZ, the purchase order and the records printed in the Purchase Book report must show Company XYZ as the supplier.

To set up your branches so that the company appears as the supplier when you print the Purchase Book:

  • Add a related address in the address book record for the transferring branch.

  • Set up billing information for the transferring branch.

To add a related address in the address book record for the transferring branch:

  1. Select Daily Processing (G0110), Address Book Revision.

  2. On the Work With Addresses form, select the address book record for Branch A.

    You can look up the address book number for a branch in the Branch/Plant Constants (P41001) program.

  3. On the Address Book Revisions form, select the Related Addresses tab.

  4. On the Related Addresses tab, enter the address book number of the company in one of the related address fields.

To set up billing information for the transferring branch:

  1. Select Customer Revisions (G4221), Customer Billing Instructions.

  2. On the Work With Customer Master form, select the address book record of the transferring branch.

  3. On the Customer Master Revisions form, select Billing Information from the Form menu.

  4. On the Billing Page 1 tab, enter a value in the Related Address Num field that corresponds to the field that you completed for the related address for the transferring branch.

    For example, if you completed the 2nd Address Number field on the Related Address tab of the Address Book Revisions form with the address book number of the company, enter 2 (Address Number 2 from the 40/RA UDC table) in the Related Address Num field on the Billing Page 1 tab of the Billing Information form.
