Project return

About project returns

Use the Project Return option to record stock items, issued to an internal project, back into your stock records.

When dealing with batch/serial numbered items the items previously issued to the area are displayed. From the displayed list the items that have been returned are selected and recorded back into stock. Items that appear not to have been issued to the internal area can be recorded into stock during this activity. When recording batched items into stock, the batch quantity cannot exceed the quantity originally issued.
