Currently on transfer orders, the under/over tolerances only affect the shipping portion of the transfer. During receiving, if the receiving side is sent items not on the order or in excess of what was ordered, there is no easy process to mark them as over-received and perhaps trigger workflow to alert the outbound warehouse who can either agree they mis-shipped or deny the over receipt. If they agree, then inventory should be adjusted out of outbound warehouse and into transfer warehouse to allow the over receipt to post.

Absolutely agree with this. A change completed at all my customers.
In addition - we need the ability to add additional items not on the original transfer at point of receiving (in the event the wrong item was added to the box).
Agree with Holly that some sort of workflow to trigger an investigation at both sending and receiving location and some determination and processing of who 'takes the loss' (Sending or receiving location) would be amazing.

The whole transfer process needs to be re-designed as it does not really allow for real life scenarios. It assumes best case. There could not only quantity discrepancies but items as well. There also be ability to add cost to account for transportation.
