See how to record incoming stock from a store-to-store transfer in Nex.
Store transfers allow you to move products from one location to another so they can be sold at the destination store. Nex registers a stock removal at the origin store in the first step, requiring a second operation at the receiving store to log the items into stock.
The transfer between stores generates a file (.JSON format) containing the details of the transferred products.
1. Download or get the JSON file to log the stock input.
The JSON file must be manually moved to the other store's computer. Click here to see how to record an outgoing transfer between stores.
2. On the Stock screen, go to the Stock transactions tab.
3. Click on the plus (+) icon.
4. Select the Transfer between stores option.
5. Click on Manual Input to register each product manually or click on Read File to select the .JSON file transferred from other store.
6. Click on Select File.
7. Choose the JSON file and click on Open.
8. Click on Select an already registered Store and choose the profile of the store that sent the products.
If the sending store isn't registered yet, click Register as New Supplier.
9. Every product in the transfer needs to be linked to a product in the receiving store's Nex database. If it's not your first time adding a specific product, you'll need to specify which item it links to. Click on F5 - Search an already existing Product to link it to an item already in your system. If the item isn't in your system yet, click on F4 - Register as New Product.
Nex may suggest a matching product already in your database. If the suggestion is correct, simply click F3 - Accept suggestion.
Important: If you create a new product during this step, leave the stock field empty. The incoming transfer will automatically update your stock count once completed. Entering stock numbers during product creation will double your stock balance.
10. Once you've mapped all products, click on Finish.
11. Double-check the details on the screen and click on Save - F2.
Done! Your incoming store transfer stock addition is complete.
