RMA Status

Status

Explanation of the stage

Open

When you enter a new RMA this is the status of the new RMA

Arranging Pickup

If any of the items on your RMA uses a RMA Reason code which has “Return to Stock” selected then the goods will be expected back into the warehouse.

You can arrange your own collection or arrange this through the warehouse or if it is being returned from a delivery then no need.

Waiting Stock Receipt

If any of the items on your RMA uses a RMA Reason code which has “Return to Stock” selected then the goods will be expected back into the warehouse.

As stock is returned you are marking stock in this status to confirm it has been returned.

Info

For customers using EDI this stage should be completed by the EDI system however for returns this sometimes has already been receipted and you are putting the RMA on afterwards so you need to perform this part manually.

Waiting Credit Auth

If there are items which can be credited straight away they will immediately get to this status.

If the goods are being returned the line will only get to this status when goods are returned into the warehouse.

Authorised users are only allowed to authorise the credit note

Partially Credited

Where you have items which you can credit but there are other items still to be returned to stock then you can partially credit the items which can be credited.

Those items will raise a credit which is waiting to be issued.

Info

Most customers will wait for the entire RMA to be completed before issuing the credit note however sometimes your customer is withholding payment so you may need to part credit.

Waiting Credit Issue

Any items which you are crediting will be in this area, this is where the system is waiting for you to send the credit note to your customer.

At this point we also raise the credit note into the finance system

Complete

When all items on the RMA are complete it will reach this status.

Credit Cancelled

If the credit note is being cancelled at any point where the goods are returned but you are not sending the credit note then you can tell the system and it will place the RMA into this status.

Cancelled

If the RMA is cancelled at any time then this is the status used.

Collection Point Details

You have the ability to use the customer default information, or you can change it to a delivery point, if you do so then all the details will update.
