If you are using more than one location, you have the ability to transfer stock from one location to another using Transfer Mode direct through the POS Screen. You can only access multiple locations when two or more POS Terminals are added to your database.
Waste mode is used to write stock off on the fly without the need for exiting the POS Screen. It also gives you the ability to ensure the write-off is made at the time the issue arises to ensure it is recorded.
