Returns

Because bookstores have huge dollars tied up in inventory, we know the important role of textbook returns. With our fully automated returns module, time-sensitive returns are no longer an issue, which means no more worrying about write-offs. Some features of our returns software include:
  • Invoice expirations based on calendar days, not months; this gives the ability to run a report of "invoices due to expire within 'so many' days"
  • Ability to run return reports by best price to maximize return dollars
  • Overstocked quantities from closed terms are automatically applied to future terms - no need to return books if they are being used again
  • Ability to keep all books adopted for the next term, or only the quantities that are needed
  • Picking Lists can be automatically printed for all generated returns
  • Ability to return books based on book grade
  • Returns can be un-posted, edited, and re-posted if you need to make changes to your chargeback due to credit memo discrepancies
  • Returns and Permission Letters can be generated on-demand for books that need to be returned soon, and are not being used for upcoming terms
  • Permission letters can be faxed to publishers, distributors, or wholesalers
  • Return and Permission Letter templates can be customized on demand
  • When returns are posted, inventory is debited, stock ledger is updated, and returns can be passed to a third party or university-based accounting system for tracking of credit or refunds from the vendor
