# Post rental transfer journal

If you move rental equipment without Rental Logistics Scanning, make sure to post the rental transfer journal when the transfer is physically done.

For each rental transfer journal line, two transactions are created:

- One to register the quantity decrease at the "from" location.
- One to register the quantity increase at the "to" location.

When posted, the transactions get the status **Invoiced**.

### Steps

1. Go to **Business objects** > **Periodic** > **Rental transfer journal**.
2. In the list, find and select the desired journal.
3. Click **Post**.

The journal is validated and posted.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> - Optionally, you can first validate the journal, and then post it.
> - When the "to" location is in another warehouse, on validation or posting, the rental on-hand of the "from" warehouse is validated. If the on-hand quantity is insufficient, the result depends on the **Allow negative rental inventory** setting on the rental posting policy:
> 
> No validation is done when the "from" and "to" locations are in the same warehouse.
>   - **No**: The transfer is not posted, and an error is shown.
>   - **Yes**: A warning is shown, and the transfer is posted.
