The Sabre Transfer Order Manager is designed to allow customers to automate and manage inventory transfers between locations, with full traceability back to the originating purchase order.
Sabre Transfer Order Manager extends Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central’s native transfer order functionality for manufacturers, distributors, and supply chain operators who need greater control, visibility, and automation over how inventory moves between locations.
Whether you are receiving foreign vendor shipments at an overseas port (FOB), managing virtual transit hubs, or consolidating multiple purchase receipts into a single shipping container, Transfer Order Manager bridges the gap between procurement and internal distribution.
When a purchase order arrives, your team no longer needs to create a transfer order separately. Business Central prompts them at the point of receipt, with the PO reference already linked. The transfer is created in seconds with a clear audit trail back to the purchase.
For companies receiving purchase orders from overseas vendors into a transit location, Auto Post Shipment handles the transfer automatically at receipt. Inventory records stay accurate without anyone manually intervening.
When inventory needs to move across the border, the proforma invoice is available directly from the transfer order page. No separate process, no additional system.
Inventory planners moving stock between a receiving warehouse and a manufacturing facility can track the full movement using enhanced transfer order pages, keeping both teams aligned with the same PO reference data.
Setup is done through configuration pages:
This setup allows transfer orders to be automatically created during purchase receipt and processed correctly in Business Central
Common causes include:
These configurations are required for the system to generate transfer orders automatically
Business Central requires an In‑Transit Code for transfer routes. If the code is missing or not configured for the location pair, the system cannot create or process the transfer order.
If a transfer order is not linked to a purchase:
Linking occurs when the transfer is created as part of the purchase receipt process
Possible issues include:
Inventory movement depends on both configuration and completing the transfer process correctly
