	<GeneralSection><List><ListIntro>Goods transfer relationships allow you to apply the SSA ERP pricing and invoicing to the transfer of goods between the entities within a company or in a multicompany structure, without using sales orders and purchase orders. You must define a goods transfer relationship between entities or enterprise units if you want SSA ERP to perform one or both of the following actions:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>Generate invoices for goods transfer within a single logistic company.</ListItem>
		</List>
		<List><ListItem>Apply a commercial price for the goods or add a surcharge percentage to the valuation price.</ListItem>
		</List>
		<Paragraph>If you do not define a goods transfer relationship between two entities, all goods transfer between entities of the same logistic company takes place against valuation prices and without invoicing.</Paragraph>
		<Note><SectionTitle>Note</SectionTitle>
			<Paragraph>Goods transfer between entities other than warehouses outside the logistic company (affiliated-company business partners and external business partners) is always controlled through sales and purchase transactions.</Paragraph>
		</Note>
		<List><ListIntro>You can define goods transfer relationships:</ListIntro>
