Hi, I have been searching this piece of functionality for a long time in OFBIZ forums. As per my understanding, the system Generated Sales return is in Accounting - AP invoice menu because of this when the customer payment created the sales return invoice is not available on the application tab under the new payment.
Quoting the same example > Suppose the following: > Order = USD 1.000,00, and goods have been delivered > Invoice = USD 1.000,00. > RMA is granted for 1 time on the order, valued at USD 100,00 > Credit Note is issued for USD 100,00 > At this moment the outstanding debt (in Accounts Receivable) is 900,00 for > the order. *Assume customer pays company USD 900.00, to clear his outstanding * *When we create a new payment for that customer, payment header section we should be entering USD 900.00 and on the application screen, we have to select the Sales invoice USD 1000.00 & return Invoice USD 100.00. Once the payment is confirmed system should back update both invoices as paid and the mark the sales invoice & sales return invoice outstanding as zero.* Please let me know if anyone knows this functionality working in Ofbiz On Sat, Oct 28, 2017 at 9:57 PM, Mike <mz4whee...@gmail.com> wrote: > Awesome detail.
