Step 5 – Returning Goods to Vendor
Topics: return products to vendor, returning purchase orders, negative purchase order
On occasion, you might need to return some goods that you've already received back to the vendor. In this case, you'll would want to create a “negative” purchase order to return them to the vendor. By using this process both your current inventory, and the value of your current inventory will also correctly show that these products were returned.
Important Note: As with receiving purchase orders, creating a negative purchase order (and receiving it), will impact inventory. Please be sure that you're comfortable with the process before going a head. For further questions, please contact our support at support@orderbot.com
