The Transfers report is generally used for Accounting purposes to reconcile your accounting package In-transit account and the inventory movements with Retail Express. The report provides a total for stock dispatched and received for each day per Outlet within the selected date range, and can be expanded to show more values for each transfer.
Tip: Reconciliation via this report is performed at a detailed transaction level. For help with account or summary level reconciliation, please see
related articles.
Considerations when using this report:
- Outbound transfers are negative as they represent a value removed from stock
- Inbound transfers are positive as they represent a value added to stock
- This report only includes the movements when transfers are dispatched and received - not created. The point of dispatch/receiving is when the inventory movement occurs within Retail Express.
- By default your stock in transit account will be adjusted by the Buy Price value as Direct Costs will already have been expensed on the supplier invoice.
- If you are using Direct Cost Provisioning your stock in transit movements will be for the COGS value with Buy Price coming from your inventory account and the Direct Costs coming from your direct cost provisioning account.
To access the Transfers Report:
- Navigate to Reports > Accounting Reports > Transfers

Tip: Product details for each transfer can be reviewed via the
Transfer Detail Report, however the Transfer Detail report returns based on created date, not dispatch/receiving date.
