Create Supplier Return

Explanation

This activity is used to initiate supplier returns from manage rentals. You can create a new supplier shipment with rental returns or you can add the returns to existing supplier shipments which are in Created or Reserved status.

Prerequisites

• Rental purchase order line must have been received.

System Effects

• As a result of this activity, a supplier shipment header will be created and a new line will be inserted into it.
• If you have planned the return with already existing supplier shipment, then a new supplier shipment line will be created in the selected shipment.
• Normally the supply chain parameters will be fetched from the default delivery address of the supplier. 
• If you have given the end rental date/time, an end rental event gets created upon delivering the supplier shipment.
