Vendor Return Authorization
When you track vendor returns using authorizations, you know the status of each return and you can track accurate information about each return you process. The vendor return workflow includes obtaining Return Materials Authorization (RMA) from the vendor, then processing the return in NetSuite to track information about each return.
For information about working with vendor return authorizations in the UI, see Vendor Return Authorization Overview.
NetSuite exposes the vendor return authorization record to REST web services. This record enables you to manage a specific vendor return authorization record.
The REST API Browser includes information about the field names and field types of the vendor return authorization record. It also includes the HTTP methods, request parameters, and operations available to this record. For details, see the REST API Browser’s vendorReturnAuthorization reference page.
