Product Returns
Tagging items as Product Returns is a little more involved than
other options. Returns are entered into a new invoice. They may be
included with other products that the customer is purchasing. With
the product entered into the invoice, highlight the product/s as in
the other examples, click on the Product Return button and click
“OK” to confirm. The message will appear asking if you are returning
the product/s to the company. Answering “No” will return the product
to your inventory (if you’re tracking inventory) and tag the
products in the invoice with a small “r” in the right column. Answer
“Yes” if you are returning the products to the company and not back
into your inventory. When you are returning products to the company,
the system will ask if the product was defective. This is used to
create the product return reports. Answer “Yes” if the product was
defective and “No” if the customer did not like it. The system will
tag products going back to the company with a capitol “R” and
transfer the products into the current Product Return Pool. Product
Returns are credited to the contact’s account.
When products are returned to the company, the system adds the
products to the Product Return Pool which tracks all products going
back to the company. You can view the current product return pool by
selecting “Current Product Returns” from the “Sales” menu.
Sending Product Back to the Company
When you are ready to send the product back to the company, the
system will create 2 types of product return reports which are used
to send the product back to the company. Creating a product return
report also clears the product return pool to start tracking from 0.
To open the Product Returns window, select “Create/View Prod Return
Summary” from the “Sales” menu.
To Create a Product Return Summary, click on the “Create” button.
The system will prompt to confirm and prompt again when the summary
has been created. When you create a product return, the system
creates a product return summary from all of the products currently
in your product return pool. The return is listed in the returns
window with today’s date and your product return pool is
cleared.
To view or print the summary report, click on the created return
in the Product Return window to highlight the return and click
“View” to open the report. The report will display all contacts that
returned product with the retail value along with the reason for the
return. Product Return reports are displayed in the standard report
window. See Reports
The system can also create a report for the product return which
displays each contact and the products that they’ve returned on a
separate page of the report. To view the Product Return Detail,
click on the product return in the Product Return window to
highlight it. Next, click in the “View Detail” option to place a
check in the view detail check box. Finally click “View” to open the
product return detail report
Deleting Product Return Summaries
If you should need to add an additional return to an
already created product return summary, you can delete the return by
highlighting it and clicking on the “Delete” button. Deleting a
product return summary will add the products back to the product
return pool. To remove product from the product return pool you must
edit or delete the original invoices which placed the products into
the pool in the first place.
