Returns & Collection Handling

Returns and Collections are all handled within OP-Connect's "Collection Note Handling" option.

Create the collection from the sales order screen and then handle all aspects of the return in one place.

You don't need to worry about the status of the order or individual lines when returning to the supplier or completing a line.  The system will know if a refund is due or the line can be cancelled from an order so it never gets invoiced.

The process can be done all in one hit, or where confirmation is required from the supplier as to whether a refund or replacement is due, a line can wait until a credit or confirmation has ben received from the supplier.

All updates track back to the original sales order and purchase orders so full transparency of what has happened is detailed.
