A/P Credit Memo in relation with Goods Return

[Former Member]

Dears,

I'm not able to make an A/P Goods Return after Making a Credit Memo.

Because as I have the Credit Memo as a Financial Document, also I want to have a Goods Return as an Inventory Document.

Kindly Advice.

Thanks,

Hey Samuel,

         Based on the invoice document only Credit memo can be prepared.....

         Goods return can be prepared for the delivery document...

         It is not possibled to create a goods return from the delivery document

Dear Ramasamy,

When you return Goods to a supplier you need to make two documents:

1- A/P Credit Memo

2- Goods Return

I'm able to make the Credit Memo.

The Problem is I can not make the Goods Return, as the System Close the GRPO.

Hi Kerolous,

You misunderstood process.

If you have booked GRPO and not booked A/P invoice you will able to create return document. This way stock will return to supplier.

If you have booked A/P invoice then you can able to create A/P credit memo. If you create A/P create memo then system reduced quantity and reduced supplier balance too. If you have selected without quantity option in A/P credit note then only vendor balance reduced but quantity remain same on system.

Hi Chintan,

I agree with you, and I know that when I make an A/P Credit Memo the Supplier Account and Inventory Account will be reduced.

Here is the Problem that the Inventory Account will be reduced Without an Inventory Document which is the (Return Document), Regardless the Credit Memo as it's considered as a Financial Document not an Inventory Document.

In Other Words, I want to Create the Two Documents, The Return (as an Inventory Document) and the Credit Memo (as a Financial Document)

Hi Kerolous,

You cannot use goods return once GRPO status is closed.

A/P credit memo solve purpose of inventory and vendor balance.

Else you can create credit note without quantity and create separate goods issue for quantity purpose.

But that document not link with each other.

Dear,

Credit memo is nothing but reversal of total INVOICE.

As you said, you are not able to  make goods return,

1) Check stock is available or not.If not revers the consumption entry

2) If you are using QM integration for GRN , system will generate an inspection lot for GRN.So now you need to reverse this inspection lot, so that stock will update in QUALITY STOCK.

Then you can return the stock using MIGO transaction(122 movement type). or

3) Assign the material code in P.O and activate check box as "RETURNS ITEM" and save.

4) Then do GRN using transaction MIGO for this return material.

Kindly check posting dates also for the inventory changes.
