# Do Not Allow Modification of Exported Documents
**YouTube:** [How to Globally Disable Modification of Exported Documents?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qijvykwi2j0)
## How to Globally Disable Modification of Exported Documents?
This tutorial covers how to enable the feature that **prevents any modification** to a **stock transfer document once it has been exported to another branch**.
***
### 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
* Navigate to the Utilities\Export/Import Branch Wise Data\Options\Export/Import Data.
* Open: Export Stock Transfers - Virtual Branches.
* Select the desired **Stock Transfer document**.
* Mark the document for **Export** and complete the export process.
***
### 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.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://kb.logicerp.com/logic-erp-learning-hub-tutorials-and-best-practices/user-access/logic-global-admin/import-export/general/do-not-allow-modification-of-exported-documents.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
