With the addition of the `reason` field to the `branchtransfers` table this allows us to track what triggered a transfer which is helpful both for later audit and for later use in code where we may want to cancel or replace existing transfers.

Description Martin Renvoize 2019-12-20 14:49:12 UTC
The transfers system is very much tied to the Holds/Reserves features at the moment, but slowly some other subsystems are starting to use it too (Stock Rotation, Rotating Collections).

For full audit purposes, we should record what triggered the transfer.

Currently stock rotation misuses 'comments' to record the 'trigger' and these comments can be obliterated by subsequently triggered transfers.
