The Characteristic column is available if the Enable Item Characteristics option is selected on the Administration > Settings > Purchasing and Warehouses form. In this column, you can specify additional properties (such as size, color, and so forth) of each listed item if the Use Characteristics option is selected for the item in its master record (see Items).

The Batch column is available, if the Enable Batches option is selected on the Purchasing and Warehouses form. In this column, you can specify the batch (lot) number for the items for which the Use Batches option is selected. Generally, you must specify batch numbers for items with expiration dates, items transferred for consignment or to third-party contract warehouses.

By default, the Content field is populated with the name of the item. If needed, provide the inventory item's description for the document print forms.

In the Quantity column, you can specify the quantity of the item (to be transferred) and in the UOM column, you can select an UOM for the item if the Multiple UOMs per Item option is selected on the Administration > Settings > Purchasing and Warehouses form.

Serial numbers are required only if the Control Stock Balances by Serial Number option is selected on the Administration > Settings > Purchasing and Warehouses form.

The New Cost Object column is available if the Advanced Product Costing option is selected on the Administration > Settings > Production form. Specify or create a cost object for which the transferred items are intended at their new place.
