Create a Purchase Return Order referencing the original PO, add return items and quantities, post the return shipment, then create and post a Purchase Credit Memo to reverse the financial entry.
Search for 'Purchase Return Orders' in Business Central and click 'New'. Enter the vendor number to start the return. The return order works like a PO in reverse — it tracks what you're sending back and why.
Use the 'Get Posted Document Lines to Reverse' function to pull in lines from the original Purchase Receipt. This links the return to the correct receipt, ensuring quantities and costs are accurate.
Review the imported lines and adjust quantities to reflect what you're actually returning. Add a Return Reason Code to each line — this helps you track return patterns by vendor and identify recurring quality issues.
Click 'Post' and select 'Ship' to record that the goods have been sent back to the vendor. This updates inventory quantities and creates a Posted Return Shipment document for your records.
After the vendor confirms receipt, create a Purchase Credit Memo from the return order or manually. Post it to reverse the original cost entry and reduce the amount owed to the vendor in the ledger.
Ask the Zentriq Agent 'Create a credit memo for vendor 10000 for invoice INV-2024-001' and it handles the process. The Agent looks up the original invoice, prepares the credit memo with matching lines, and waits for your approval before posting.
