    Before you begin

    Transfer order lines enable the transfer of multiple assets on a transfer order. When you create a transfer order line, a transfer order line task is automatically created. Transfer order line tasks are created to move transfer order lines from one stage to the other. Each transfer order line can have multiple tasks such as Requested, Shipment Preparation, In Transit. For information on the stages of a transfer order line task, see Summary of transfer order line tasks.
