Introduction
Welcome to the guide on managing the return of rejected items using the Purchase Receipt feature in Empress. This feature is designed to simplify and streamline your inventory management, allowing you to keep track of received items and return those that have been rejected.
Why is the Purchase Receipt Feature Important?
From a business perspective, managing returns effectively is crucial to maintain your inventory accuracy and enhance customer satisfaction. The Purchase Receipt feature in Empress allows you to receive items in the Accepted Warehouse or the Rejected Warehouse. This guide will guide you on how to create a Purchase Return for those items that have landed in your Rejected Warehouse.
Creating a Purchase Return Entry: Step-by-Step Guide
Here’s how you can create a return entry for the rejected items:
- Open the Empress interface and navigate to the Purchase Receipt Item table.
- Identify and select the item you wish to return.
- In the Received Qty field, enter the quantity of the item you want to return. However, make sure you input this as a negative number.
- Now, move to the Accepted Warehouse field and set the value to zero. This action indicates that none of the items have been accepted.
- Finally, in the Rejected Warehouse field, input the quantity of items to be returned but again as a negative number. Doing this confirms the number of items that were rejected and are going to be returned.
Practical Example: Returning Rejected Items
To help you understand better, let’s consider a practical example. Say you’ve received a batch of products, and after inspection, you’ve found a few to be defective. You want to return these items. Here’s how to do it:
- Follow the steps mentioned above, select the defective product in the Purchase Receipt Item table, and enter the quantity you want to return in the Received Qty field as a negative number.
- Then proceed to the Accepted Warehouse field and set the value to zero, indicating none of the items from this batch were accepted.
- In the Rejected Warehouse field, enter the quantity of items to be returned as a negative number, confirming the number of items you’ve rejected and are about to return.
This process helps you efficiently manage your inventory, keeping it accurate and up-to-date.
