## Overview

Transfer Reasons provide the configuration area for transfer-reason records in Warehouse Settings. Administrators use this page when maintaining the available transfer-reason entries for warehouse-related processes. Use the page to review existing entries and start a new transfer-reason entry.

## Before you start

You must be signed in to access the Transfer Reasons configuration page.

## Steps

1. In the application navigation, select **Configurations > Warehouse Settings > Transfer Reasons**.

2. Review the existing transfer-reason records displayed on the **Transfer Reasons** page before adding another entry. This helps prevent duplicate or inconsistent entries.

3. Select **New** to begin a new transfer-reason entry.

4. Complete the transfer-reason details presented in the new entry form, following all required-field and character-format validation messages.

## Tips & cautions

> **Warning:** The transfer-reason form enforces required fields. Complete each field identified as required before finalizing the entry.

> **Note:** One field accepts only underscores (`_`), hyphens (`-`), and periods (`.`). Use only those accepted characters where this validation is displayed.

> **Tip:** Review the existing records on **Transfer Reasons** before selecting **New** to maintain a consistent set of transfer-reason entries.

## Troubleshooting

- You cannot access **Transfer Reasons** → You may not be signed in → Sign in, then select **Configurations > Warehouse Settings > Transfer Reasons**.

- A value is rejected because of its characters → The field has an accepted-character restriction → Use only underscores (`_`), hyphens (`-`), and periods (`.`) in the field displaying that validation.

- A required-field validation message is displayed → A mandatory field has not been completed → Enter a value in each field identified as required.

## Result

The Transfer Reasons configuration page is available, and a new transfer-reason entry can be started by selecting **New**.
