Closing Line Items on a Customer Return Authorization

If you no longer expect to receive items that show on an return authorization, you may need to close one or more lines on that transaction.

Note:

If you are going to close a line item on a customer return manually, you must credit the customer return BEFORE you close the line. When all lines on a customer return are received or closed manually, the return no longer shows in queues to be received, credited or refunded.

Close Lines on a Return

Then you can do the following:

To close an individual line item:

  1. Click Edit on the authorization and click the line you want to close.

  2. Check the Closed box in the Closed column.

  3. Click Save.

Note:

You can still close lines individually by editing the return authorization record and checking the Close box on a line regardless of the status of the return authorization. However, closing a line that has already been received or received and refunding can affect reimbursement.
