Transfer inventory to source
Depending on the business needs and status of location, multi-source merchants often transfer product inventory from one source location to another. For example, you may be closing a warehouse location or no longer shipping specific products from a location, moving all operations for those products to a new location.
This option allows you to select one or more products, the origin source to transfer inventory, and the destination source to receive quantities:
-
Inventory quantities, Source Item Status (In Stock/Out of Stock), and the Notify Quantity for the selected source are moved per product.
-
If a product does not have that source, it is skipped.
-
All product inventory for the source is moved. You cannot transfer a partial quantity.
You can also unassign the source when transferring inventory quantities.
-
On the Admin sidebar, go to Catalog > Products.
-
Select the products for which you want to modify sources.
Browse or search to find products and select checkboxes for transfer.
-
Click the Actions menu at the top and choose Transfer Inventory to Source.
-
Click OK in the confirmation dialog.
-
To transfer products to a new destination, select the origin (from) source.
-
to transfer products to a new destination, select the destination (to) source.
-
To remove the source from the products, select the optional checkbox Unassign from origin source after transfer.
