Use a return when the customer brings items back. Use a cancel when the whole invoice was a mistake.
Return items
- Go to Sales / POS > Invoice > Invoice History and find the invoice.
- Open its actions menu and choose Return invoice.
- Enter the quantity being returned for each item and save.
- The items go back into stock. The return number can be used as a payment on the customer's next purchase.
Cancel an invoice
- In Invoice History, open the invoice's actions menu and choose Cancel invoice.
- Confirm and give a reason. All items return to stock and the invoice moves to Cancelled Invoices.
Tips
- Returns are listed in Invoice Return History, and cancellations in Cancelled Invoices, so managers can review them.
- Only users with the matching permissions can return or cancel. This protects you from unauthorised refunds.
