Workflow guide
Multi-warehouse inventory and stock transfers in Tiram
Quick answer
Every Tiram plan comes with one warehouse for free. Adding a second (or more) location, and moving stock between them with a Pending → Dispatched → Received transfer flow, is included from the Gold plan — with each transfer preserving the original FIFO cost of the stock as it moves.

Workflow step
Adding warehouses
Every organization starts with one default warehouse, free on every plan. Adding a second or further warehouse — a second branch, a backroom store, a distribution hub — requires the Gold plan or above; Silver is limited to a single location.
Workflow step
Transferring stock between warehouses
Open Transfers → New transfer, pick a From and To warehouse, add product/quantity lines, and save — the transfer is created as Pending. Dispatch it once the goods physically leave the source warehouse (stock and FIFO cost come out of the From location); Receive it once they arrive at the destination (stock and cost land in the To location). The three-state status — Pending, Dispatched, Received — mirrors the actual physical movement, so your system of record never gets ahead of what's really happened on the ground.
Workflow step
Cost carries across on transfer
A transfer doesn't reset your cost basis. When stock is received at the destination warehouse, Tiram rebuilds FIFO cost layers there from the same unit costs that were consumed at dispatch — so a product's valuation and margin reporting stay accurate no matter how many times it moves between your locations.
Workflow step
Which Tiram plan includes multiple warehouses and transfers?
One warehouse is free on every plan, Silver included. A second (or further) warehouse, and stock transfers between locations, require the Gold or Platinum plan.
Quick answers
- Can I run Tiram with just one warehouse for free?
- Yes — every plan, including Silver, includes one warehouse at no extra cost.
- Which plan do I need for a second warehouse?
- Gold or Platinum. Silver is limited to a single warehouse location.
- Does moving stock between warehouses affect its cost?
- No — Tiram carries the FIFO cost basis across on a transfer, so valuation and margin stay accurate after the move.
- What are the stages of a stock transfer?
- Pending (created), Dispatched (left the source warehouse), and Received (arrived at the destination) — reflecting the real physical movement.
FAQs
- How do I add a second warehouse in Tiram?
- Go to Warehouses → New warehouse. This requires the Gold plan or above; the first warehouse on any plan is free.
- How do I move stock from one warehouse to another?
- Transfers → New transfer, pick the From/To warehouses and product lines, save, then Dispatch and later Receive as the goods physically move.
- Does a stock transfer show up in inventory valuation immediately?
- It moves once Dispatched (leaves the source) and Received (arrives at the destination), with cost layers rebuilt at the destination to match.
- Can two warehouses have completely different stock levels for the same product?
- Yes — stock is tracked per warehouse, so the same product can be well-stocked at one location and low at another.
- What plan do I need for stock transfers?
- Gold or Platinum — transfers only exist once you have more than one warehouse, which itself requires Gold or above.
