This function is used to record returns of non-consumed material having been subject to a delivery for sub-contracting or to a supplier return. This concerns for instance a return of damaged material or of material sent in excessive quantities as compared to the recorded sub-contracting order.
It is not possible to carry out directly a sub-contracting material return. This return is created:
Once the return is carried out, the stocks will be transferred and it will be possible to print a return note.
Refer to documentation Implementation
The presentation of the entry screen depends on the setup of the selected transaction.
If only one transaction has been set up, any selection will be suggested when entering the function; otherwise, a window opens and displays the list of transactions that might be used. (The choice can also be restricted by access codes.)
The creation of a sub-contracting material return is performed by picking:
- either a sub-contracting delivery line (in the left list Delivery Selection),
- either a supplier return (in the left list Return Selection).
The picking lists are available as soon as the ship-to customer is entered.
Presentation
The header is used to enter the ship-to customer and so to initialize the picking lists.

Fields
The following fields are present on this tab :
|
The site in which the return is carried out. It is initialized by default with the user usual storage site. |
|
Only one type of return of the "For sub-contract" category can be entered. Besides, the legislation and company group for which it is defined must be consistent with those of the receipt site. The return type is used to determine, amongst other things, the sequence number counter at use. |
|
Return number used to identify the latter in a unique way. |
|
By default the return date is initialized to the current date. |
|
  |
|
The delivered customer code is mandatory. It remains modifiable provided no return line has been entered. |

Presentation
Each returned product line is loaded from one or several lines selected by picking in the lists of the Selection panel: Delivery selection and Return selection.
It is initialized with the entire delivery or return, except for the returns that have already been carried out for this delivery or return.
Depending on the setup carried out for the Stock information at entry transaction level, the data necessary to the stock movement can be entered on the return line when the stock update is required and when there is only one stock detail line. When this information has not been entered or when there are several stock detail lines, a Detail entry window automatically opens at return line end in order to complete it. See below Entry operation in return creation mode.
In addition to the stock characteristics specific to the product, a certain number of rules affect stock receipts. A general description can be entered for these rules in the Delivery return for sub-contract field, in the Stock management rules setup function. They can also be refined by Product category or site-specific product category. If necessary, a receipt to stock rule on sub-contract material return can also be defined by Product category for a movement typology (see the movement code definition on the Sub-contracting material return transaction setup).

The project code in document line is initialized by the one entered in the header or, in the case of a document transformation, by the one of the selected document lines (in picking or in mass processing, if the project code on a document line is inactive, the line cannot be selected).
In modification mode, the project code management depends on the value of the CTLOPPCOD - Mandatory project control parameter.
When the entry is controlled, depending on the context, a project or one of its entities can be picked (a budget batch or task), using its posting code:
In selection, there are two possibilities:
When the project code of the document header is modified, this project code is automatically transferred to the lines, except when the multi-project management is authorized. In this case, a dialog box would open and suggest to transfer this code to the lines of the document, according to the following options:
Sales documents: quotes, orders, deliveries and invoices:

The location types are used to codify the warehouse locations according to their storage characteristics: dimensions, authorized statuses, technical constraints etc. |
|
The location can be entered only if the stock update is demanded. A location type and / or a location are not necessarily to be entered on the return line; it can happen that the returned material is distributed over several storage locations. If they are not entered, the Stock detail window opens automatically at line end for the distribution to be entered. When several location types and / or locations have been allocated and when there is a sub-detail for stock lines, the $ symbol appears in these fields at entry end on the document line. |

It can be accessed:
A detailed description of this window is available in the Receipts to stock detail documentation.
This function is only available for the products managed by lot provided the stock receipt has not yet taken place. It is used to identify, when the lot has not been entered, how the lot is to be calculated during the stock receipt. The possible values are: Lot sequence number counter, Document no., Blank lot.
This function opens a window and is used to inquire lot characteristics (expiry date etc.).
It can be accessed on the return line and only in the case of products managed by lot and as long as the receipt to stock has not been carried out. Via the Stock detail windows, it can always be accessed, either in creation or in modification mode.
This function opens a window used to modify the stock movements carried out upon record of a return and to delete return lines if necessary. If it is the only return line, the return note itself will be deleted.
This function is very similar to the Entry of quantity details function available upon saving a stock transaction on the return line.
It can only be accessed from a stable situation: it cannot be accessed on Modification in the Return function (Save button must be de-activated).
On saving a modification, reversals will be carried out on the original transactions in the stock journal and new stock transactions will be carried out on the original transaction dates. A modification on a receipt will only be possible if the stock line linked to the credit memo still exists or if the quantity to be processed for this line is sufficient.
This function is used to access by tunnel to the original delivery based on the user authorizations.
This function is used to access by tunnel to the Stock by site function, based on the user authorizations.
This function is used to access by tunnel to the supplier return based on the user authorizations.

This information can still be modified.
This function is used to view the transaction setup used.
This function is used to tunnel access the management function of the Installed based.
Upon entry of the return with stock movement, of a product managed in the base, the customer base is automatically updated (only for products with serial numbers). The situation of the base record will then be In Stock (if the stock transaction has been recorded with the status: A) orScrap (if the stock movement was recorded with the status: Q or R). A history record identifying the previous situation (at the customer) in the installed base record will be created.
In certain cases, the automatic update cannot be carried out, in particular in the case of products for which the installed base has never been created. Using this function, it will thus be possible to re-create a base record or to update the base manually (granted the user has authorization). Any modification carried out on the return after a stock receipt will no longer update the installed base automatically. It will be necessary to update the installed base manually.
