Warehouse: Work In Progress - YFF

Work In Progress - YFF is the warehouse for material that has been issued to production but is not yet a finished product: fabric cut for T-shirts, parts partly assembled. A Work Order first transfers raw material from Stores into this warehouse with a Material Transfer for Manufacture; the later Manufacture Stock Entry consumes it here and receives the finished item into Finished Goods. The value stays inside Stock In Hand - YFF the whole time, so the Balance Sheet shows one inventory figure, but Stock Balance filtered by this warehouse tells you how much money is tied up on the shop floor. Any balance left here after the Work Order closes is a sign of unposted consumption or waste.
