Sage 100

Does anyone have a method to track pending vendor credit memo's for returned goods in MAS? Client does a return of goods entry and posts it to get the inventory out of the on hand balance when the return is sent but there is no way to track whether the credit memo has been received or not. Would have been nice to see Sage make vendor inventory returns a two step process in the PO module similar to the receiving steps but I guess that was just to complicated........ MAS200 v 4.5, any input is appreciated Thanks!

Transfer the items to a virtual ""returns"" warehouse and let the RMA sit open?

I like using the RMA or PO number as the invoice number so the expected credit shows up on the AP aging. Good visibility. Then when the vendor credit comes through I adjust off the placeholder.

It IS a two step process if you leave the ""Invoice Number"" blank when you do the Return. You then have to do a negative Receipt of Invoice when you get the credit. So you get SOME visibility that way, via the Purchases Clearing report.

Only if the Purchases clearing report is a tool that can be used..................

You can at least usually depend on it to have the Qtys correct. The cost, not so much, depending on what the client has done, but Qtys are usually pretty good.

An alert might work if you have KS.
