Vendor Return (PO31.1)

Use Vendor Return (PO31.1) to perform processing for items being returned to vendors. Return information can be added on this form. When authorization from a vendor to perform the return is received, information about the agreement with the vendor can be entered. When the return items are shipped to the vendor, information about the shipment can be entered. If any adjustments must be made to the return after shipment in terms of quantity changes or even cancellations, there is an area to enter that information.

More Information

One of the form tabs can be used to look at item information from a vendor perspective when getting authorization. If the return items must be shipped to a nonstandard location, the shipping address can be entered. Comments can be entered against the return at header and line level. The comments can print on the Return Material Authorization (RMA) document.

Returns can be created from an original purchase order for the whole return or a single line. An original purchase order reference is not required, however.
