Products may be moved into different departments either by editing the Product and selecting a different Department or by using the Batch Edit Products utility found at Hub / Utilities / Admin Utilities / Hub.
There are a couple of things to consider before moving products:
- When moving Products, be sure to check the posting accounts of the new Department (Accounting Setup / Inventory Departments / GL Posting) to verify those are the accounts into which the Product should be posted.
- A manual Journal Entry will need to be made to move the value of the Product to the asset account of the new Department. A Journal Entry will also need to be made to move over the associated cost of goods as well as the sales for the Product.
