NOTE: The Check Offs boxes are not tied to any logic within Epicor outside of an alert; which can be sent. It is also possible to add an attachment (photo) at this point using the paperclip function. Supplier information is required if it is a return to a supplier or if we need a credit. 

To reject a part, go to the Reject tab (since all information is greyed out this requires further action).

NOTE: The Return to Supplier check box is not driving any other action within the system. It is for reporting purposes. Once saved, this part has been removed from inventory. This will place a transaction in the accounting queue. You have debited an account. This allows the accounting to apply a credit to this debit. 

To reconfirm the part has been removed from inventory:

1. Click on the Part
2. Click on Open With
3. Click on Part Tracker

Debits & Credits

1. Click on Debit/Credit
2. Click on New
3. Click on New Debit Memo (this screen is currently greyed out)

Are we going to get access to this screen in the near future? You mention it isn’t a function we will probably use, so I am wondering if we need to document this? Will this function live outside of Epicor?

NOTE: This does not create a credit memo, it sends an alert to accounting to inform them that this request has been made and it will provide them with the applicable information.
