It is easy to send a shipment of products to another store directly in Sitoo POS. The shipment can be divided into packages. When a shipment is sent to another store, it is displayed as an incoming shipment in the receiving store. If the carrier's tracking link is added, the recipient can also follow the transport.
You can also manage shipments in Backoffice.
