Using Perishable Item Returns
How to use the Perishable Items Returns Process
Overview
The returns process for Perishable items is designed to allow a sales rep, a truck driver or a customer to initiate a return easily. Returns can result in
- A credit
- An order being Created
- A replacement being sent out
- An alternative item being sent out
- An inspection on stock being returned
- Return to stock if passes inspection
- Write off stock if does not pass inspection
- Any of the above could also result in a claim on the supplier
Return Rules
- Returns will follow the following general rules:
- Each Return must be linked to the original Order
- Return Credits must use the amount paid on the original order for the credit
- If a transaction is expected to be created (Credit note, replacement order)- it will wait until all items on the return that possibly could be included are decided
- Eg if one item is Credit only and another is return-inspect-credit then the credit will not be created until the item that must be inspected has been done.
- Returns that must be picked up (see Return Actions table below) will be added to the daily run sheet and printed in queue before any order for the same outlet
- Drivers will have a sheet of paper to know to pickup the items
- Replacement orders (when required) will be created regardless of an existing order for the outlet
- Link to be shown to the initiating return
- Items that are returned are inspected and either put back into stock, samples or scrapped. Both samples and scrap values are written off.
- Journals created as this happens
- Returns have an Authorisation process
- manager to approve from Dashboard (Awaiting Authorisation status) use "Confirm" to progress.
