Dear All,
I am also interesting about purchase return order that is also asked by Mark Christs. I can’t find the definition or detail explanation about routing no.,operation no. and finished fields in the manual and online help (F1). Could you explain in detail or shortly with sample about the fields, I would welcome to all your answers. tks a lot.

Hi Mr GM,
firstly, could I please ask you to update your profile information, please can you please put your name and location, its helps when answering your quesitons if we know a little about you. See this thread …http://dynamicsusers.org/forums/thread/381.aspx
Anyway,
the purchase return order relates to a normal purchase order. It differes from a credit memo in that the items can be received seperately and individually from the invoicing. Consider it as the realtion between an invoice and an order.
The fields you ask about are related to manufacturing, and have no real connection to the Purchase return.
Hi David,
[:)] you are very funny to give me that link. I repfer to use MrGM but also you can call me Marton.
I understand now that purchase return’s sourcetable is purchase line and document type is the different. I also wonder why they include the fields of manufacturing there as I know that the document types are : Quote,Order,Invoice,Credit Memo,Blanket Order,Return Order for purchase order. So, it’s just a wrong address fields.

Hi Marton
Those fields are on the purchase tables because you can create subcontracting purchase orders from the manufacturing area and these are the references to link the order to the operation.
Hi Steven,
Tks a lot for your answer. I’ve got the answer now. It means that I use subcon worksheet to generate purchase order for subcon work and then if I return the subcon result for example caused by deffect or wrong quality, I can use the purchase return. and if I don’t want to fill manually, I can use copy document function and just fill the qty field according to qty to return. Am I correct…? [:)] if yes, I think this topic solved. but I need some answers to assure.

Dear All,
I don’t want this topic close yet. I am still facing trouble. I create 165 pcs items sheet metal box for painting subcontract. If I have received some items from sobcont company 150 pcs but not invoiced. Then the items returned to
subcon company because some deffects. What should I sue credit memo, purchase return or undo receipt in history…?
If I choose undo receipt the system will tell “you must not specify the prod. order no. in purch. receipt line…”.
If I use purchase return order, which one I must do, ship and invoice or ship only…? If I select ship only , the line still exists and then I must to invoice. Meanwhile I don’t invoice yet in the purchase order when receive the 150 pcs items.
If in the option windows I checked to yes the recalculate lines field of purchase return, I can’t post the purchase return, because system will ask to fill apply-to item entry field, meanwhile I can’t use field apply-to item entry field although exact cost reversing clicked to yes because there is prod. order no., work center no., etc…filled in the lines meanwhile systems ask to remove the datas in the fields.
If I have returned the items then I want to receive them back after corrected by the subcontract company, where would I write the 150 pcs items.? if I write in the same purchase order for subcontract, the system will tell “you can’t receive more than 0 units”. Do I need to create new purchase order for subcontract but if I do it, the system can’t create it. I don’t really understand to use purchase order for subcontract works especially the fields relate to prod. order no.,m routing no., work center no. fields and so on that relates to prod. order routing line. The fields’ datas sometimes used but sometimes must removed. I expect your answer so much.

You cannot undo the receipt as you are not purchasing an item, you are purchasing a service, the sub contract service.
My memory of this whole process is that they never ironed out the sub-contract and returns relationship. I suggest you put this back to your NSC to get them to reproduce and report to Microsoft.
The relationship of the subcontract purchase order is to tie the receipt and cost into the production order - you are buying a service and not an item and therefore this all has to flush through against the production order as though it were a step in the rouitng.
Hi Steven,
Tks for your reply. I must select receive and invoice when posting then, if my subcontracted items received in factory from subcon company. when I want to return the items because of low quality grade, I must use purchase return mustn’t I…?

Nope, you are not returning an item, it is a service, subcontracting, it is an operation, but you purchase a service not an item so it is different but part of the routing. You would need to issue a purchase credit memo direct to a G/L account I guess, I cannot off the top of my head remember where the postings go.
Mortin, have you asked your NSC any of these questions. It seems that you are doing an implementation without their help. I am sure that you are diing the right thing by consulting dynamics users for help, but a lot of these questions you whould be asking your NSC also.
