The Weight Transfer action can be used to move weight from one lot into one or multiple other lots. This action can only be recorded as a direct action. It is not available as a work order task.
This action will only move weight. To move volume between lots, use the Transfer action.
This article covers:
How to perform the Weight Transfer
- Select the action from the Record Action dropdown in the top navigation bar
...or from the Lot details page
- Select your "Transfer from" lot. You will only be able to transfer from a lot that is in weight.
- Select your vessel and determine whether you would like to enter the ending fill of the vessel, or the amount to remove from the vessel
- Select your "Transfer to" lot. You may:
- Retain lot code - to keep the volume in the same lot, but transfer to new vessels
- Combine with existing lot - to move the volume into another lot that already exists (this creates a new blend)
- Create new lot - to move the volume into a new, separate lot. If you will be tracking this weight as a unique ferment, we recommend transferring the weight in to a new, unique lot code.
- Specify your vessels to fill, and the weight for each. Please note that you cannot take a gain or loss on this action!
- Record your Weight Transfer!
FAQ
Q. Why can't I schedule a weight transfer in a work order?
A: Weight and volume adjustment actions are only available as direct actions. InnoVint does not currently support weight and volume adjustment tasks in work orders.
If you need to schedule a Weight Transfer in a work order we recommend using a Custom Task, and once complete and submitted to then record a Weight Transfer as a direct action.
Q. I'm getting an error when I try to submit a weight transfer - why?
A: Weight transfers do not allow a loss or gain to be taken on the action. These actions should be used to move weight around. If you need to adjust the weight of a lot, please use a Weight Adjustment action.
