Transfers is a program used to post transfer transactions for items on the inventory file. It is located under Transactions>Transfers.
Transfer transactions are posted to record a change in an item's asset class, fund, or function codes. These transactions are not necessary if the GAAP flag is unchecked. These codes can simply be modified on the item record in Items when not on GAAP. Once the GAAP flag is checked, these fields become unmodifiable in Items and any changes require a transfer transaction to be posted. These changes are then reflected in the "transfers in" and "transfers out" columns on the GAAP Change Schedules
