How to stop Open Sales Return Orders from impacting 'Item Availability' quantities.

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 141
Hello,
 
As soon as we create a Sales Return Order the Item Availability increases by the qty on the SRO. Often when the goods have come back to us, we find different quantities or different items have been returned so the system has be reckoning on exactly this stock from coming in at the certain date. 
 
It seems a bit strange that this wouldn't be based on Sales Return Order Receipts once the qty and items have been confirmed. 
 
This leads us to over promise and not order items that we need for customer orders. 
 
Any suggestions or recommendations for getting round this? I can't find much about it online which I'm also surprised.

    Hi,
     
    I don't believe there is any way around this unless you can change the code to only look at say Status = Released on the item availability.  Without adding code you could create a RETURNS location and then exclude this from the item availability screen using the location filter as shown below and enter <>RETURNS.
     
     
    Once you have receipted the stock in then it could be moved to another location if you want to sell.
     
    Hope that helps,
    Shauna

    I agree with Shauna, unless you customize Item Availability, the standard can't do it.
     
     
    Thanks.
