Steps
Configure the 943 outbound and 944 inbound transaction guides for the depositor-to-warehouse relationship
Generate and transmit the EDI 943 when goods are shipped between warehouses, including item, quantity, and carrier detail
Monitor the receiving warehouse's connection for the corresponding EDI 944 once the transfer shipment arrives
Parse the 944 to identify received quantities, condition notes, and any shortage or overage against the original 943
Reconcile discrepancies in your inventory management system before closing the stock transfer record
Transmit an EDI 997 functional acknowledgment in response to the received 944
Known gotchas
The 944 is sent by the receiving warehouse only after physical verification, so there is an inherent lag between shipment (943) and confirmed receipt (944) that inventory systems must account for
Discrepancy codes in the 944 (damage, shortage, overage) require a defined resolution workflow — simply logging the 944 without reconciliation defeats its purpose
This is distinct from the customer-order-facing EDI 940/945 pair; conflating stock transfer transactions with warehouse shipping order transactions will misroute data in a multi-purpose EDI pipeline
