Intermediary Transactions

An intermediary transaction is a transaction type that is associated with serialized inventory. Intermediary transactions return previously removed serialized items back to your inventory. For example when you sell a serialized item to a customer and then they return the item, that is considered an intermediary transaction.

The transaction type is determined by whether the quantity is positive or negative. Since you can enter negative quantities on some task windows, we will describe in detail what constitutes an intermediary transaction.

The table below shows which quantity value and task window will create an intermediary transaction.

Quantity	In this window
positive quantity	Credit Memos, including Voids
negative quantity	Voided Sales/ Invoices
positive quantity	Voided Payments
negative quantity	Sales/Invoicing
negative quantity	Receive Money
