COP Transfer Order - Skip Transit Location if
COP Transfer Order - Skip transit location if order transit days = 0
Currently, when processing a COP Transfer Order, system transfers to Transit Location when order is invoiced, and then requires user to do Receiving Transfer Order Processing to transfer material from transit location to destination.
Propose that if Order Transit Days = 0, system transfers to destination location when order is invoiced - skipping the transit location and eliminating the need to process via Receiving Transfer Order Processing to complete the transfer.
This feature is available in Elliott version 8.29.212. See http://support.elliott.com/knowledgebase/articles/1898099-feature-cop-transfer-order-skip-transfer-if-tr for more information.

To do this, we need to introduce a global setup flag to enable this feature (by default, not enable). This is necessary not to introduce un-expected changes to other users. If this flag is enabled, and the customer file "Transfer Days" = 0, then we can directly transfer the inventory to the target location without going through the transfer location. The posted invoice will be marked as "received". All ATP records will be adjusted accordingly.
