# User Guide

This section will show you how to complete goods movement processes from Inventory Managed (IM) or Warehouse Managed (WM) storage locations.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**

This user guide refers to PreBilt transactions beginning '*PB2\_*' and details the standard process without additional features or enhancements. You should [copy these transactions](/prebilt-for-im-wm-strm/configuration-guide/transaction-codes.md#create-a-transaction) with a different prefix to maintain a backup and protect the originals.

The General Postings app can be accessed via the Stock Enquiry app. If stock is being issued from a storage bin in a WM storage location then the source storage type and bin will be transferred through to a transfer order. The TO will need to be confirmed in a Stock Movements transaction. This user guide will assume direct access to the General Postings app.
{% endhint %}

The General Postings app can be configured to allow you to make postings for a range of major business processes as detailed in the [Functionality](/prebilt-for-im-wm-strm/applications/general-postings-migo-and-vlmove/functionality.md) section.  These processes are managed through a number of PreBilt transactions operating in a similar way, as detailed below.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Selection

Select from the list of processes that have been setup for you. For example, **'Goods Issue'.**

Select the relevant movement type that has been assigned to the selected process.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**

When posting with reference to reservations and orders, there will be additional selection to allow searching for the relevant reservations or orders. You will see this, for example, in the transactions *PB2\_GEN\_POSTING\_RESV and PB2\_GEN\_POSTING\_PP*.&#x20;

This screen then replaces the manual input of the material details and then directs you to the item input screen once you have selected the appropriate reservation or order.

You will see something similar in the VLMOVE transaction *PB2\_GEN\_POST\_VLMOVE*, which is used to manage goods movements of handling units.&#x20;
