Bin Transfer
A Bin Transfer transaction moves items between bins within a warehouse. The transaction identifies the item, the source bin, the receiving bin, and the quantity to be moved. This type of transaction does not post to the chart of accounts and has no financial impact. The transfer only updates the quantity on hand in each bin for the items transferred.
This transaction is available when the Bin Management feature is enabled. For details, see Bin Transfers.
Bin transfers can move items only if they are already in one or more bins.
The bin transfer record is defined in the tranIxnvt (inventory) XSD.
Supported Operations
The following operations can be used with bin transfer records:
add | addList | delete | deleteList | get | getDeleted | getList | getSavedSearch | getSelectValue | search | update | updateList | upsert | upsertList
You can also use the asynchronous equivalents of SOAP web services list operations. For information about asynchronous operations, see SOAP Web Services Asynchronous Operations. For more information about request processing, see Synchronous Versus Asynchronous Request Processing.
Field Definitions
The SOAP Schema Browser includes definitions for all body fields, sublist fields, search filters, and search joins available to this record. For details, see the SOAP Schema Browser’s bin transfer reference page.

Usage Notes
Accessing Serial/Lot or Bin Data for Line Items
As of the 2011.2 endpoint, code to access serial number, lot number, and bin number data varies according to whether the Advanced Bin Management / Numbered Inventory Management feature is enabled.
-
If this feature is enabled, you must use the 2011.2 endpoint or later to access the Inventory Detail subrecord and the most up-to-date bin and numbered inventory fields. You need to update any SOAP web services code from a previous endpoint that accesses these fields, to avoid errors or unexpected results.
-
If this feature is not enabled, you do not need to use the Inventory Detail record to access bin and numbered inventory fields and you do not need to update any related SOAP web services code from prior to 2011.2.
For more details, see Updating SOAP Web Services Code When Advanced Bin / Numbered Inventory Management is Enabled.
