Feature Request: Enable transfer orders using the new Square Handheld

Please allow us to create transfer orders on the new handheld. It seems like it would be a natural functionality with the new barcode scanner. A big part of our inventory work happens outdoors on docks where it isn't possible to use a computer. Currently when transferring stock, we need to put it down on paper first and then someone in our office enter the information as a transfer order in dashboard. Unsurprisingly, there are often errors, and it's an annoying duplication of work.

Even if you are near dashboard, It takes 7 actions to transfer one item.  Between click, keystroke, scan item, add 1, then having to add the qty in next screen regardless….its crazy.  Should be a one step process on handheld.  Productivity debt builds.

I specifically bought the handheld for transferring inventory between locations, I'm quite surprised to find this functionality missing

Surprising that there's not more requests from customers for this feature. 

This should be a natural function for the handheld.  I have not tried transferring through it yet, but am currently at a portion of my sales cycle where it would be handy.  Especially since the built-in barcode ready works so well.

 

I would love for an import feature to be added to the transfer orders section. Currently have to use the PO import function instead to transfer products between locations.

@beefolks1 yeah totally should be a natural function for the handheld to be able to barcode scan and transfer stocks. I can't even print invoices to desktop printers as well which shouldn't be a tough thing to do. Because of this limitation, I decided to scrap this idea of transferring stocks between locations in order to simplify my process.
