Returning Damaged stock to Supplier

GopalaAP

When we buy a product, we buy by carton and number of units will be 10, but when some of the units are damaged I need to issue credit request, then when I raise a new Purchase Invoice, enter the quantity as a negative, system tend to take whole carton, how can I do the returns only for the damaged units?  For example came 10 cartons, (10x10 = 100Units), one carton damaged, opened and check, only 4 pks are damaged and need to request for credit for 4 packs and remove it from inventory. But when I put -4, the stock it picks as -40. How to do this please. Thanks

Hi @GopalaAP 

 

My methodology will only work if your description is correct on how you enter your stock.

 

If I read correctly 

 

1 carton = 10 units 

1 carton = $80 i.e. 1 unit = $8

 

Take it from another angle - you order 1 carton and you get by mistake 1 unit how would you enter that.

 

According to my understanding of your setup you would enter this order as 

 

0.1 cartons received = $8

 

So if you received 4 units (i.e. 4/10ths) of a carton - you received 0.4 cartons.

 

You then note ALL of these are damaged and you return them.

 

The credit would be -0.4 x 1 carton = - $32

 

If this isn't happening then your inventory isn't how you are describing I suspect.

 

Just being The Devil's Advocate - sorry.
