Returning items

You can select items that were already received that you want to return. For example, you can select a damaged item to return it. When you apply this action to each selected item, a negative receipt is displayed for each item.

Procedure

  1. On the List tab of the Receiving application, select the approved purchase order record that contains the items that you want to return.
  2. On the Material Receipts tab, click Select Items for Return.
    The Select Items for Return window displays only items that are available to return.
  3. Perform either of the following actions:
    • To return the received quantity of an item, select the check box for the item that you want to return.
    • To return a partial quantity of an item, select the check box for the item, and specify a value in the Quantity to Return field. If you want to return all the items, select the check box in the table header.
  4. Click OK.
    A return transaction is created for the specified item. In the Material Receipts table window, the Quantity field for each item you selected to return displays a negative value.
  5. Optional: To enter codes for each returned item, click View Details on the material receipt line and then type a code in the Reject Code field.
