From time to time, customers may need to return items to you. You can easily return these items from the original sales order by clicking on the Return<\/em> tab in inFlow On-Premise. If you have issued a credit, or still owe your customer, you’ll be able to print a credit note.<\/p>\n\n

To process the return:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. On the original sales order, click the Return<\/em> tab at the bottom.<\/li>\n
  2. Click Auto Fill<\/em> to copy the contents of the original order into this tab.<\/li>\n
  3. Remove any items from the list which are not being returned. When you\u2019re finished, only the items that are being returned to you should be in this table.<\/li>\n
  4. If any items are being discarded instead of going back into your inventory, check the box Discarded<\/em>? next to the item in question.<\/li>\n
  5. At this stage, if the customer has already paid you,<\/strong> you can give a refund and\u00a0print your credit note. To do so click Print<\/em>, select Credit Note<\/em>.<\/li>\n
  6. To complete the refund click the SALES<\/em> tab and click on Refund<\/em> (at the bottom of the screen) to give your customer the refund. If you are issuing credit instead, click the arrow button beside the Refund<\/em> button and select Issue Credit<\/em>.<\/li>\n
  7. You can click the Restock<\/em> button to restock your items.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    If you have issued a credit you will still be able to print a credit note but if you have issued a full refund that document will no longer appear in the print window once you’ve completed your refund.<\/p>\n

    The returned items will show up along with the items that been sent out so you’ll see some negative quantities on the sales order. This is normal and a good indicator of which items were returned can be shown on the left most column of the sales order in a red circle.<\/p>\n

    Don’t see a Refund\/Issue Credit<\/em> option? inFlow won’t show this if your customer hasn’t paid you in full\u00a0— it’s just going to deduct it from the balance of the order.\u00a0You shouldn’t have to issue credit\/refund for items that your customer hasn’t paid you for, after all!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
