For each transfer requirement that you select, the system goes to the overview screen for creating transfer orders for transfer requirements. To continue processing, choose Transfer order  ® Post. If you selected more than one transfer requirement, the system displays the next transfer requirement for processing. Otherwise, the system returns to the list display screen. In both cases, the system displays a message that a transfer order was created. The system also displays the transfer order number. The system marks all transfer requirements that were successfully processed with an asterisk ( * ) on the list display screen.
