Transfers move inventory items between FBO accounts. They support batch operations, approval workflows, and full audit trails to ensure every asset movement is tracked and authorized.

​
How transfers work

Transfers operate in batches. A transfer batch groups one or more individual item transfers from one FBO account to another into a single operation.

​
Transfer reasons

Each transfer has a reason that categorizes why the movement is happening:

​
Approval workflow

Transfers follow a structured approval workflow:
Only Beach Depositories staff can approve or deny transfers. Transfer requests can be initiated by organization admins.

​
Cross-organization transfers

Transfers can occur:
  • Within an organization — between FBO accounts under the same organization (initiated by org admins)
  • Across organizations — between FBO accounts in different organizations (initiated by vault staff only)

​
Audit trail

Every transfer action is recorded:
  • Transfer creation (who requested, reason, notes)
  • Status changes (approval, denial, completion)
  • The specific staff member who approved or denied
  • Timestamps for each state transition
Transfer events are also recorded in the inventory event log, creating a complete chain of custody for every item.
