Understanding Product Transfers from Pool

The pool temporarily holds unsourced product(s) from a canceled order or product from a customer return. The product remains in the pool until you transfer the product to the final location. You must remove any unsourced or returned product from the pool by Supplier Return, Pool to Stock transfer, or Pool to Garbage transfer.

Accessing Pool Management

The Pool Management window can initiate both Pool Stock and Pool Garbage transfers. It is best to use the Pool Management window when dealing with the pool because you can complete multiple transfers in one window.

Transferring Product from Pool

Selecting the Pool Product

In the Pool Management window:

1. Click New Pool Stock or New Pool Garbage
   • The Pool Selection window will open

In the Pool Selection window:

2. Filter the pool products to display the appropriate product(s)
   • Usually by Order Number or Suggested Disposition

3. Check the Select checkbox(es)

4. Click OK

Transferring a Non-Stock Product from Pool to Stock

*Note: If you are completing a pool to garbage transfer, proceed with Completing the Transfer.

Comsense allows you to transfer non-stock products from pool to stock. To transfer the non-stock product, you must group the product with a similar managed product.

In the Pool Stock window:

1. Right-click on the Product line item
2. Click Add Managed Product

In the Warehouse Product Selection window:

3. Filter the Managed Product
4. Select the Managed Product line item
5. Click Add

6. Click OK

Adjusting the Unit Cost

*Note: If you are completing a pool to garbage transfer, proceed with Completing the Transfer.

In the Pool Stock Transfer window, the Cost column shows the price of the product at the time of purchase. The Unit Cost column shows the product cost from the Managed Product window and will be the new value associated with the product after the transfer. In the image below, the unit cost is $89.72 more than the cost (the actual purchase price). The increased unit cost causes the next person using the product to deal with an additional.

You must update the Unit Cost column to match the Cost column before completing your transfer to maintain accurate product pricing.

In the Pool Stock window:

1. Expand the product line item

2. Update the Unit Cost column to match the Cost column

3. Repeat steps 1-2 for each product

Completing the Transfer

In the Pool Stock or Pool Garbage window, Add any applicable notes and Click Save & Close

The pool product is now in the stock or garbage.
