Create Transfer Order - Transfer Requirement
Application component: Warehouse Management (for Extended WM please use SCM-EWM*)
App type: SAP GUI
Description:   To execute goods movements in the warehouse, you create transfer orders in the Warehouse Management System (WMS).  You create a transfer order for an inbound delivery as soon as the supplier informs you of the scheduled delivery. The advantage of depicting the goods receipt process through the inbound delivery function is that you can execute many processes in advance even before the actual goods receipt posting takes place. You create a transfer order for an outbound delivery if you want to supply a delivery to a sales order for which you have previously created an outbound delivery in the system (see Goods Issue Processing with Reference to Outbound Delivery ).  You create a transfer order for the transfer requirement whenever the transfer requirement has been created as a source document. This is the case, for example, if you post a goods receipt in Inventory Management (IM) or if a transfer requirement is created through the PP interface for production supply.  
Key features:   When you create a transfer order (TO), the system determines all the bins in the warehouse that are affected by the goods movement (source storage bin, destination storage bin, and possibly also the return storage bin), and it automatically updates the storage bin data. The system also updates the respective fields in the document that was used to create the transfer order in the first place.  Note In order to simplify the analysis of errors when searching for storage bins, it is possible to display a log of the internal processes that take place between the material master data and the storage bin search function. The system records a log of where it searched for the storage bins. To display the storage bin search log, choose Environment     Stor.bin search log from the preparation screen or the individual item screens when you create transfer orders for both stock picks and stock putaways.  You can create transfer orders (TOs) using different procedures. Procedure   What You Should Know     TO for inbound delivery    You can create transfer orders on the basis of inbound deliveries. For more information, refer to Creating Transfer Orders for Inbound Deliveries .     TO for outbound delivery    You can create transfer orders either automatically or on the basis of outbound deliveries. For more information, refer to Automatic Creation of Transfer Orders for Outbound Delivery .     TO for transfer requirement    You can create transfer orders automatically on the basis of transfer requirements. For more information, refer to Automatic Creation of TOs for Transfer Requirement .     TO for posting change notice    You can create transfer orders automatically on the basis of posting change notices. For more information, refer to Automatic Creation of TOs for Posting Change Notices .     TO for material document    You can set up your system so that transfer orders are created immediately when you post material documents in the Inventory Management component. For more information, refer to Creating Transfer Orders Immediately at the IM Posting .     Creating TOs using multiple processing function    The multiple processing task makes it possible for you to group several transfer requirements or deliveries together and process them all at once. Instead of processing each transfer requirement or delivery individually, you can select these documents from a multiple processing list and create transfer orders for them in a single transaction. For more information, refer to Multiple Processing .     Creating TOs manually    You can also create transfer orders manually if you have a goods movement that only involves internal transfer of goods. Refer to the sections Manual Creation of Transfer Orders for Putaway and Manual Creation of Transfer Orders for Picking .
