Status evidence
- Nothing said about status; launch event convention: generally available unless stated otherwise.
Where they talk about it
- What's new in SCM: Overview: 12:36 to 13:30 (called "No blank-location entries needed in inventory posting setup" there)
Quotes
- 12:36 "we can remove these lines from the inventory posting setup because they are not needed for transfers" - Setup cleanup: blank-location entries in inventory posting setup are no longer required.
Prerequisites mentioned
- Manufacturing setup option to copy location code to value entry links to capacity ledger entry
Documented features match
- Post direct transfer orders from warehouse-enabled locations - low confidence (llm). Docs say: General availability, roadmap id 573347. Transit locations related
- Product documentation: Register consumption and output for a released production order, checked 2026-10-02. You don't have to keep an Inventory Posting Setup line for a blank location just to post overhead. Value entries linked to capacity ledger entries have a Location Code. Note: Same capability appears in release plan 2026 wave 1 'Experience improved usability in manufacturing', so it likely shipped in an earlier wave than this one; transit-location part covered in inventory-how-transfer-between-locations.
Docs checked on 2026-10-02: the match is against Microsoft's what's new pages for the wave as they were on that date. Microsoft keeps filling the documentation, so "no documented item" can go stale.
