When items on a distribution order are shipped, internally they are transferred to an in-transit inventory site. The in-transit site defaults to the receiving site. This assumes that title is transferred to the receiving site at shipment (FOB destination). The site can be changed to the shipping site (or another site) in various order maintenance programs.

The in-transit location corresponds to the transportation code. If the in‑transit site does not support automatic locations, you must create these locations in Location Maintenance (1.1.18) before shipping and receiving DRP items.
