Inventory transaction types
Every row in MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS is classified by a predefined type from MTL_TRANSACTION_TYPES — common ones are Miscellaneous Issue/Receipt (manual quantity adjustments not tied to a PO or sales order, typically requiring an account for the offsetting entry), Subinventory Transfer (moving quantity between subinventories/locators within the same org, no accounting impact), and Inter-organization Transfer (moving quantity between orgs, which can be in-transit and does have accounting impact). Shipping and receiving-driven transactions (ship confirm, PO receipt) are generated automatically by those processes rather than entered directly in Inventory.
