Select the vendor from the <strong>Vendor<\/strong> drop down field and choose the reason for the return from the <strong>Reasons for Return<\/strong> drop down. After saving the record, the system generates a <strong>Transfer ID<\/strong>, which uniquely identifies the return transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adding Product Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, add the products to be returned. Click <strong>&#8220;Add a line&#8221;<\/strong> and select the desired product from the drop down. For serialized products, use the product code to choose the specific serial number. Select the corresponding <strong>GR Bill<\/strong> from the <strong>Bill<\/strong> field drop down and enter the quantity in the <strong>Demand<\/strong> field.

In the <strong>Serial Numbers<\/strong> field, click the drop down to view all available lot names for the chosen product. Select the appropriate lot. After clicking <strong>Validate<\/strong>, the selected lot name will appear in the <strong>Available Lots<\/strong> field, confirming that the product is ready to be returned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once validated, the system records the product return, ensuring that inventory and vendor records are updated accurately.
