À propos de ce produit
Shopify's native multi-location inventory tells you how much stock sits at each location, but it gives you no structured way to move that stock. There is no purpose-built transfer document, no scan verification, no in-transit state, and no record of who sent what to where. Most multi-store retailers end up tracking transfers in spreadsheets and discovering discrepancies only after stock has already gone missing.
Multi-Location Inventory Transfers is a Shopify app we build to order and install on your store. It adds a proper transfer workflow on top of Shopify's existing multi-location inventory: create a transfer, scan each item on dispatch, watch it sit in an in-transit state, then scan again on arrival to receive it — including partial receipts when a shipment arrives split across days.
Under the hood it is an embedded app using OAuth, the Admin GraphQL API, and inventoryAdjustQuantities to move available quantities between location IDs only when a receipt is confirmed — so in-transit units are never double-counted as sellable. Transfer records live in app-owned database tables with metafield references back to the relevant products and locations, and inventory webhooks (inventory_levels/update) keep suggestions accurate. Low-stock auto-transfer suggestions compare per-location availability against thresholds you set and recommend rebalancing moves.
Because it is built for your store, the workflow matches your locations, barcode format, and approval rules — not a generic template. ECOSIRE handles the build, the install, and ongoing support. This is not an instant App Store download; it is a custom engagement with an honest delivery lead time, described below.

Pour qui c'est
Multi-store retail operator
Runs two or more physical stores plus an online channel and constantly shuffles stock between them. Needs every transfer scanned and logged so on-hand figures stay trustworthy and shrinkage gets caught at the door, not at year-end.
Warehouse and fulfilment manager
Replenishes retail floors from a central warehouse and needs an in-transit state plus partial receipts so stock in motion is never oversold and split deliveries reconcile cleanly.
Operations or inventory lead
Owns inventory accuracy across the business and is tired of spreadsheet transfers. Wants auto-transfer suggestions, an audit trail, and exportable records to defend the numbers during reconciliation.

Foire aux questions sur Multi-Location Inventory Transfers
How long does delivery take, since this is built to order?
This is a custom build, not an instant App Store install. After a short scoping call to confirm your locations, barcode format, and approval rules, a typical build-and-install runs about one working week depending on how much your workflow differs from the standard transfer flow. We confirm a firm timeline in writing before any work starts, and we install the finished app directly on your store via OAuth.
What happens to support and updates after the app goes live?
Every build includes a defined post-launch support window for bug fixes, configuration adjustments, and maintenance when Shopify changes its Admin API or webhook behaviour. After that window you can keep us on a support arrangement for ongoing changes and new features. Because the app is yours and runs on infrastructure we set up for you, we are the single point of contact — there is no third-party vendor in between.
Does this replace Shopify's native multi-location inventory?
No — it builds on top of it. Shopify already tracks how much stock sits at each location; this app adds the missing transfer workflow: a transfer document, scan verification on send and receive, an in-transit state, and partial receipts. Inventory changes are written back through Shopify's Admin GraphQL API, so your Shopify location stock levels remain the source of truth.
How does the barcode scan verification actually work?
On dispatch, staff scan each unit against the open transfer; the app matches scans to expected line items and flags any mismatch before stock leaves. On arrival, staff scan again to receive — only scanned-and-confirmed units update Shopify availability at the destination, and anything short stays tracked as an open partial receipt. It works with standard USB or Bluetooth barcode scanners and your existing product barcodes.
What access does the app need to my store?
It installs through standard Shopify OAuth and requests only the scopes required to read and write inventory levels and locations, plus the webhooks it needs to stay accurate. We do not request scopes the transfer workflow does not use, and we walk you through exactly what is requested during install.
Can it handle stock that arrives split across several days?
Yes. Partial-receipt handling is built in: when only part of a transfer arrives, you receive what is in hand, and the app keeps the remaining quantity open and in-transit. The transfer closes only once all units are received or you mark the balance as reconciled, and every step is recorded in the audit trail.

- Create structured stock transfers between any two Shopify locations (stores or warehouses) with line-level quantities
- Barcode scan verification on dispatch — every unit is scanned against the transfer before it leaves, catching mispicks at source
- Barcode scan verification on receipt — arriving stock is scanned in, and only confirmed units update Shopify availability
- True in-transit state so units leaving one location are not counted as sellable at either end until received
