    "intro": "The objective of this test is to validate that a previously created, approved transfer order can be shipped out of the source organization in Oracle Fusion SCM, confirming that the correct transfer order, ship quantity, ship method and ship date are captured and that source on-hand and the transfer order status are updated correctly once the shipment is submitted.",

      "ship quantity is captured correctly against the transfer order line, including full and partial shipments",
      "the ship method and ship date are captured and reflected on the shipment",
      "lot and serial detail, where the item is lot- or serial-controlled, is captured correctly at shipment",
      "source organization on-hand quantity decreases by exactly the shipped quantity and the transfer order status updates to reflect the shipment",

It does not cover creation of the transfer order or receipt at the destination organization, which are covered by the Create Transfer Order and Receive Transfer Order scenarios in the same Transfers cluster."
