Stock Return Outbound
A stock return outbound records stock being sent back to another branch. When it's approved, the quantities are removed from stock at the For Location. The other branch receives them with a Stock Return Inbound.

How to send stock back
The quickest way is from an approved Stock Return. To create one here:
- Open Stock Transferring › Stock Return Outbound and click ⊕ (Add New Transaction).
- Fill in Created For, For Location, Request by, Deliver To, Deliver To Location and Remarks.
- Choose how to add products:
- Direct: add the products yourself.
- From Invoice: pick an approved Stock Return and click Import.
- Click Save ▾ and choose Save, Approve or Approve and Print.
What approval does
Stock goes down at your For Location; the goods are in transit until the other branch approves the Stock Return Inbound, and serial numbers are On Transit. The stock return's remaining quantities go down.
Example
Store 2 sends the 24 jackets back: import the approved stock return, approve when the van leaves, and send the printout with the goods.
