> - **Time savings**: Quick reorganization of stock via the PDA.
> - **Space optimization**: Better management of available locations.
> - **Fewer errors**: View a location's capacity before any movement.

 

 

### 2. Prerequisites ✔️:

Feature available only for **Shippingbo packs with Advanced warehouse (Expert+ pack).**

 

 

### 3. How do movements between locations work?

This feature allows users to move stock from one location to another directly via the **PDA**. It makes it easier to rearrange locations, optimize space and manage internal logistics.

**💬 Good to know:**

➡️ You can view the layout of each location before moving stock, which helps avoid errors and ensures better management of the available space.

➡️ You can find the picking priority rules for locations [here](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/fonctionnement-entrepot-avance?hsLang=fr).

 

 

### 4. How do I activate the location-to-location stock movement feature?

**4.1** Go to the menu Configurations -\> Logistics -\> PDA -\> check the option ***Allow full stock movement from location to location*:** 

**![](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-21-2025-01-50-38-6584-PM.png?width=670&height=307&name=image-png-Jan-21-2025-01-50-38-6584-PM.png)**

**4.2 Access stock movement management**:

- To use the location-to-location stock movement feature, from your **PDA**, go to the menu **"stock management"**.
- Click on **"stock movements"**.

**4.3 View the layout of the location**:

- Select the option **"full location"** to display the detailed layout of the current location.
- **Scan the source** location (the one you want to move the products from). 
    - If the location is full, you will see it indicated.
    - If the location is partially filled, you will get an overview of the remaining space and its exact contents.

**4.4 Scan the destination location**:

- **Scan the arrival location** (the one you want to move your products to).
- The PDA will inform you of the remaining capacity and help you avoid any placement error (location already full, for example).

**4.5 Carry out the movement**:

- After validating both locations (source and destination), you can proceed with the stock movement safely.
- Stock will be updated automatically once the operation is completed.
  
  ➡️ This procedure ensures an optimized organization, by allowing your teams to view the available spaces before each stock movement.

 

**💡 Tip:**

If you want to perform a **stock movement** from location to location **for several products**, you can follow our dedicated tutorial [here](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/optimiser-la-r%C3%A9ception-lors-de-lutilisation-demplacement-temporaire-en-entrep%C3%B4t-avanc%C3%A9?hsLang=fr).

📢 **Point of caution:**

- Make sure the destination location has enough space to hold the products.
- If the starting location contains reserved products, the movement cannot be carried out and an error message will appear.
- Regularly check the status of your locations to avoid any imbalance or overload.

 

 

 

### 5. Practical example

**Context**:

You are an e-merchant in the fashion sector, and with the sales period approaching, you need to reorganize your warehouse to free up locations for promotional items.

**Using the feature**:

1. **On your PDA**, go to the "stock management" menu and then "stock movements".
2. **View the layout of the locations** to see where the lower-priority products are (e.g., old collection).
3. **Scan the source location** to display its contents, then **scan the destination location** (less accessible).
4. **Carry out the movement**. Your inventory is updated automatically.

**Result:**

- **Time savings** and space optimization
- **Fewer errors** thanks to the visualization of location capacities

In just a few steps, you have efficiently reorganized your stock to maximize your sales.

 

 

**⚒️ Recommendation:** 

Before fully using the feature described in this tutorial, we strongly recommend running **a test phase** with your own settings to check that the result matches your expectations. As the customer remains **fully responsible** for the actions carried out in the Shippingbo account, these tests are essential to use the tool with complete peace of mind.
