SL5 and Lower

Debit Return must be performed on the P.O. Line/Releases that were vouchered incorrectly. If you are not sure which lines/releases and quantities were vouchered, you can run the Voucher Register report found in A/P Vouchers and Adjustments. Enter the voucher number as the beginning and ending voucher and answer YES to Print PO Line/Rel. This will display the PO Lines/Rel and quantities vouchered.

From the purchase order screen, find the purchase order in question.
Select Activities/Receiving
Either Select Edit/Update Filter and update PO line/rel status to F or
Edit - Add and PO line manually
Edit/Update
DR Return = YES
Receive Qty = positive quantity which needs to be debited
Location/Lot = Location and Lot to which item should be returned
Reason = user predefined Purchase Order Returns Reason Code.
Material, Freight, Duty and Brokerage costs will default with the original receipt cost.
Select Edit/Receive/Receive Line or Batch

Debit Return has been processed. An adjustment voucher will need to be generated against the original voucher.

2. Select Activities/Generate A/P Transactions.
If there are no quantities to be vouchered, Generate type will default with A.
If purchase order defaults with type V, do Edit, Find, key in purchase order number and Generate = A.
The values shown here will appear as positive numbers, but will generate a negative adjustment.
Debit Returns are ALWAYS negative adjustments.
Modify PO information as needed, such as any freight or misc charges added to original voucher.

3. Select Activities/Generate Voucher.
Answer OK to 'Generate Voucher will be performed'.
A small box will appear for you to enter the original voucher number.
If you do not know the voucher number, hit enter and a list of vouchers associated with this purchase order and line items will display.
Find the voucher in question and enter that number in the small box.
Post the adjustment voucher generated to A/P Posted Transactions.

Make any corrections to purchase order lines/releases and re-receive the line items.
