Perform internal seed transfer
Since access to seed sources is restricted to the owning program, seed sharing or internal seed transfer is a frequent activity among programs or teams. In the Seed Transfer tab in the Inventory Manager, they can now send and receive packages internally to programs of the same crop.
Before doing this, you must remember these conditions in selecting packages for transfer:
The packages must contain only one unit of measurement. This means that all entries must have the same unit of measurement, whether that be in grams, kilograms, or the number of seeds, plants, or panicles.
All packages must belong to one program. All packages for transfer must be “owned” or managed by one program and not from a combination of two or more programs.
Lastly, the user must be a team member of the program owning/managing the packages. Only team members of the owning program can perform seed transfers.
