Warehousing
I would normally translate these terms as "receipt" and "despatch" (UK English), however in this particular context they describe the movement of goods within a warehouse, i.e. the goods do not actually leave the warehouse, they are simply moved from one stock location to another.
My question therefore is: am I right in assuming that "receipt" and "despatch" cannot be used in this context?
If so, what terms would be more appropriate?
All help much appreciated as always!

Note from asker:
| I must say I like this option, however I can't see how it's going to work in all situations. Take the following sentence for example: "Entrée/sortie de stock, correspondant à l'entrée des marchandises dans le dépôt ou à leur expédition hors du dépôt." The problem with this particular customer is that they will want 100% compliance with the glossary... |

Comment: "This is the option we went for in the end, with a "transfer in"/"transfer out" construction whenever an explicit verb is required (thanks to David Sirett :-)"

enter/leave
The goods "leave" one location/zone and "enter" another, whether there exists an industry-wide jargon describing stock reorganization movements I couldn't tell you, "receipt" and "dispatch" are standard terms, in fact I don't see why you couldn't use them: goods "dispatched" from one zone and "received" into another
Note from asker:
| To be honest, I've never had a problem using "Receipt"/despatch" for internal stock movements before but his particular customer is insisting that there is a difference, personally I am not at all convinced... |

I would actually refer to STOCK MOVEMENTS but I'm guessing your context so have to be careful

Entry/exit
The goods may be transferred between the entry and the exit gate within the warehouse.
More original context would be handy, of course.

I saw some links to intra-warehouse transfers but couldn't see the distinction between into a location and out of a location.
