Overview

Use Return of Goods Entry to enter the quantity and dollar value of goods returned to a vendor, apply the information against inventory on-hand quantities, and post a debit memo for the total amount of the return. You can also use Return of Goods Entry to enter or maintain basic information about the return order, purchase and ship-to address information, and line item details. Each line item represents a product being returned or a comment to be printed on the return order. You can also display totals information calculated by the system for the current return order.

If the Job Cost module is integrated with Purchase Order, when an original purchase is costed to a job, the appropriate cost and quantities can be reversed from the Job Cost files. The Job Cost distribution information for line items entered for the original purchase order can be modified. You can also enter Job Cost distribution information for returns for which there is no corresponding purchase order.

If the Work Order module is integrated with Purchase Order and if the original purchase is costed to a work order, the appropriate cost and quantities can be reversed from the Work Order files. The work order distribution information for line items entered for the original purchase order can be modified. You can also enter work order distribution information for returns for which there is no corresponding purchase order. If the Work Order module is integrated with Purchase Order, you cannot enter a material issue transaction type for noninventory special items (*) or miscellaneous items and charges (/).

As each return is entered, information from the matching purchase order is retrieved automatically to speed the data entry process. After the Return of Goods Register prints, the quantity returned is updated in the Open Purchase Order file. If the Inventory Management module is integrated with Purchase Order, the quantity on hand is updated in Item Maintenance.

Note When processing a return of goods without a purchase order, if the Include Allocated Cost in Default Unit Cost check box is selected in the Purchase Order Options window, verify the Return Total amount before updating the return order.

Note Purchase orders can be deleted only in the Purchase Order Entry window.

You can view the Return of Goods Entry window in normal or expanded view. The expanded view allows you to view more entries on the Lines tab. The Change View button is available only if your screen resolution is set to 1024 x 768 or higher.
