Default Disposition Code (C18)

Purpose: Use this screen to define the disposition code that will default when creating a return authorization.

Code field: Enter the code that defaults to the Disposition field when you create a return authorization record for a returned item through Work with Return Authorizations (WRTA), Return By Item (WRBI), or the Returns function of Order Maintenance. This is the default disposition code; however, you can override it when creating the return.

The disposition code defines how the returned item will be handled: whether it affect inventory levels; to which warehouse will the item be returned; to which location in the warehouse will the returned item be placed.

Additionally, all items on the order will be received into the warehouse and location defined for the default disposition code if the disposition code affects inventory.

This value is validated against the Return Disposition table. See Establishing Return Disposition Values (WRDV).
