    • Execute move request - ISF000003
    • Manually update quantity while picking pr depositing in move inventory - ISF000008
    • Execute ad hoc move - ISF000013
    For more information, see Administering user group permissions.
  • Bar code types
    Configure the following bar code types for your store's enterprise:
    • Store Scan Item or Location. Used to scan locations and products while executing move requests. The bar code validation sources are: SIM location, SIM Serial, and Item.
    • Location. Used to scan an alternate location when a destination location is unavailable. The bar code validation source is SIM location.
    • Serial Scan. Used to scan the serial number to remove a product picked using that serial number. The bar code validation source is SIM serial.
    By default, bar code types are provided for the Default organization. When you set up a new enterprise, you must create these bar code types again or copy it from the Default organization. For more information, see Configuring bar codes.
