Returning Material After Receiving a Purchase Order (with a Vouchered PO Line)

If the PO line has been vouchered, you must first process a debit return on the purchase order line.

  1. Open the Purchase Order Receiving form.
  2. In the Vendor field, select the vendor for the PO line you are returning. The purchase order lines for the selected vendor display in the grid.
  3. In the Select field, select the check box for the PO line you are returning.
  4. Select the DR Return check box for the selected line.
  5. In the Receive Qty field, enter the positive quantity that needs to be debited.
  6. In the Reason Code field, select the appropriate user-defined purchase order returns reason code.
  7. On the Detail tab, in the Location and Lot fields, enter the location and lot to which the item should be returned.
    Note:  The Material, Freight, Duty, and Brokerage costs will default with the original receipt cost.
  8. Click Receive.
  9. After the Debit Return has been processed, open the Generate A/P Transactions form.
  10. Filter to the vendor for the PO line you are returning.
