The “Ad-Hoc Movements” application allows users to move Items between Bins.

Core features of this application include:

• Moving Items without pre-defined instructions
• Ability to move Items to other Locations
• Posting

You can access the Ad-Hoc Movements application from the Home screen by clicking the “Ad-hoc Move” link.

When launched the Ad-Hoc page will be displayed.

When the application page opens it will look like this:

The standard process flow should be used when moving Items:

• Scan the Bin to move from
• Scan the Item to move
• Enter the quantity received and Item Tracking Information (if required)
• Switch to Place mode
• Scan the Bin to move to

See General Document Handling for more information.

The Scan Behaviors page in Business Central can also be further configured to control aspects of this process as well. For instance, it is possible to configure it such that a quantity dialog does not ever appear but instead increments the count by one, or to change the default quantity or unit of measure to move.
