Return Qty. to Ship Field, Purchase Line Table
Specifies the quantity of items that should be returned to the vendor.
Each time the Quantity field is updated and you post a return order, the program will automatically suggest shipping the quantity that has not yet been shipped. It calculates this quantity as the difference between the Quantity and the Return Qty. Shipped fields.
The program automatically creates return shipments when you post, but only if the return order contains at least one line for which the Return Qty. to Ship is not zero. That way, you do not create shipments where the quantity for all lines is zero.
The program updates this field automatically every time items are shipped.
The contents of this field can be revised for partial shipments.
If the location on the purchase line has been set up to require shipment processing and warehouse activities have started, the value in this field can only be controlled by the warehouse shipping document. If you try to fill in this field, the program will give you a warning that anything entered here will be disregarded by the warehouse operations.
If you want to bypass the warehouse operations, you must cancel the warehouse activities for this line.
