# Post transfers through shipment and receipt codeunits
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
A two-step transfer order preserves a continuous quantity, reservation, and cost/application lineage from the source through in-transit to the destination. Its shipment and receipt workflows also own posted documents and derived lines for partial receipt. Posting an item-journal movement and manually marking a transfer header or line as shipped is not equivalent, even if the total quantities balance.
|
|
|
|
## Best Practice
|
|
|
|
A prepared non-direct transfer order without required warehouse documents uses `"TransferOrder-Post Shipment".Run` at shipment and `"TransferOrder-Post Receipt".Run` at receipt, with the actual `"Transfer Header"`. Validated source quantities to ship/receive prepare the operation; posted quantity counters are results of posting.
|
|
|
|
Required warehouse shipment or receipt enters the warehouse document posting workflow, which invokes the transfer poster with its real source context. Direct transfers have their configured standard workflow; the two-step sample's in-transit guard is not a universal requirement.
|
|
|
|
Standalone item reclassification journals and bin movements are legitimate separate operations, not completion of an existing transfer order. Tracking/application splits and average-cost handling mean transfers do not have one fixed item-entry count or a nonzero `"Transferred-from Entry No."` on every application.
|
|
|
|
See sample: [`post-transfers-through-shipment-and-receipt-codeunits.good.al`](post-transfers-through-shipment-and-receipt-codeunits.good.al).
|
|
|
|
## Anti Pattern
|
|
|
|
Ad-hoc item postings, independent positive/negative adjustments, manually created posted-transfer rows, and direct shipment/receipt-counter changes cannot substitute for transfer-order posting. Updating `"Last Shipment No."` after a bare item-journal call does not create the posted shipment, source-line progress, or transfer application lineage.
|
|
|
|
Changing an existing item ledger entry's location or inventing application links does not repair that missing workflow. Metadata enrichment within the normal shipment/receipt or direct-transfer workflow is distinct from replacing the posting operation.
|
|
|
|
See sample: [`post-transfers-through-shipment-and-receipt-codeunits.bad.al`](post-transfers-through-shipment-and-receipt-codeunits.bad.al).
