***

### Enable the Restriction in Logic Admin

* Open **Logic Admin**.
* Navigate to **Global Settings**.
* Under **"Import/Export"**, go to **"General Settings"**.
* Locate and enable the option labeled as:

> **"Do Not Allow Modification of Exported Documents"**

* Click to **save** and **restart the software** for the settings to take effect.

***

### Export Stock Transfer Document

### Attempt to Modify the Exported Document

* Navigate to: **Stock Transfer Out**
* Click **Modify** and open the **exported document**.
* Try to make changes (e.g., alter quantity, date, or any field).
* When you attempt to **save** the changes, the system will:
  * Display an **error message** stating that **modification is not allowed** for exported documents.

### Result

With the restriction enabled:

* Exported Stock Transfer documents become **read-only**.
* Ensures **data integrity** between branches.
* Prevents **unauthorized changes** after inter-branch dispatch.

***

### Tip

This setting is especially useful in multi-branch organizations where exported documents should remain **unaltered** after dispatch to maintain consistency in audit trails and inter-branch reconciliation.
