You can use long- and short-term surplus for transfers from Options menu in Transfer Entry, Shipment Confirmation, and Receipt Confirmation. Surplus transfers are valid for active warehouse/items that are stocked items, that do not exist in the item catalog file (ICICAT). Click Options>Surplus Transfer and select one of these options:
W - Long-term surplus by warehouse
w - Short-term surplus by warehouse
Surplus is neither buyer nor vendor specific. The displayed warehouse from the transfer program is always used. Click OK to display the Import Items (ICE451) program with surplus lines listed in the grid. Toggle the surplus lines you want to import to the transfer. Those lines that already exist for this transfer will be of type “T” and cannot be toggled.
