Completing And Printing The Supplier Return Note

When you have added header details, lines and reviewed Documentation details as required you will need to Complete the Supplier Return Note. On Completion the Supplier Return Note will automatically be 'printed' to a specified destination (i.e. a printer, email and/or fax number, and/or to disk).

 

To do this, click Complete on the Toolbar - Sub Menu:

After clicking Complete, the Supplier Return Note is printed and closed automatically. You may retrieve it from the Recent Documents section of the Home tab or from the Finder - see Finding Supplier Return Notes.

 

Printing The Supplier Return Note

The Supplier Return Note is automatically 'printed' on Completion.

 

See example:

 

Default Supplier Return Note Print Options

The default output method and Supplier Contact is the one defined for the document type 'Supplier Return' in the Document Defaults Tab for this Supplier. If no Document default is specified, the default 'print' destination is the default specified for the document type 'Supplier Return Note' in your User record > IO Control Fields tab.

 

Notes: (1) You may use Print Groups to view, print and email/fax any document saved to Disk (i.e. to the Linux Host Server). (2) Many Quantum VS document types and Reports are output as XML files which the system automatically converts into 'formatted' PDF files which may be printed via a printer, sent by email, faxed, saved to disk or sent via the Quantum VS XML Highway. See Setting Up XML To PDF Document Printing.

The Next Stage Of The Supplier Return Procedure

When the supplier has confirmed receipt of the Supplier Return Note - and any returned goods - you will need to Confirm the lines on the SRN, which confirms that the supplier has received the stated quantity of each product.
