Inventory Movement can be used to move inventory from locations containing **Not Available** quantity to another location. This process can be used when inventory previously marked as damaged, quarantined, or unavailable is determined to be usable and needs to be returned to regular stock. For transferring large quantities or multiple items at the same time, consider utilizing the [Batch Inventory Movement](/xoroerp-1/inventory/batch-inventory-movement/how-to-batch-move-inventory.md) module. #### FAQS
#### Why can't I move an item out of a Damage Location in XoroERP? \ In XoroERP, inventory stored in a **Damage/Damaged Location** is treated as **Not Available**. As a result, you may be unable to move it through regular inventory movement. To move the inventory out of a Damage Location, you may first need to modify its **Not Available** quantity, provided the location type is permitted by the system configuration. #### How to Move Inventory Out of a Damage Location 1. Navigate to **Inventory by Location**. 2. Locate the item in the Damage Location. 3. Use **Change Not Available Qty** to modify the damaged quantity and make it available, if permitted. 4. Once the quantity is available, navigate to **Inventory Movement** or **Batch Inventory Movement**. 5. Select the item, source Damage Location, and destination location. 6. Complete the inventory movement. #### Important Configuration Note The **Allow Modification of "Not Available" Qty** setting controls which location types allow changes to unavailable inventory quantities. If the Damage Location type is not permitted by this setting, you may be unable to modify its unavailable quantity. The configuration documentation also cautions against allowing modifications for location types other than **Warehouse**. **In simple terms:**\ Inventory in a Damage Location is marked as **Not Available**. You may need to modify its unavailable quantity first, if permitted, before moving it to another location using Inventory Movement. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.xorosoft.com/xoroerp-1/inventory/inventory-movement/moving-inventory.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
