Purchase Return

Sends goods back to a supplier — reverses both stock and the payable.

What it does

Returns goods to a supplier, reversing both the stock increase and the payable the original purchase created. Most return types require a reference back to the original invoice; a no-reference variant covers the rare case that reference isn't available.

How it works

Reference the original invoice

Picking the original purchase ties the return to what was actually received.

Post the return

Generates the reversing voucher and decreases stock back down.

The problem it solves

Defective or over-ordered stock needs to come back out of both inventory and the supplier balance cleanly — without a proper return, you're stuck either eating the cost or manually correcting the books.
