About Customer RMAs
Customer RMAs are used to preapprove refund transactions. Companies with a high volume of return transactions or with high cost items may wish to use this optional feature to control refunds. When this feature is used, a previously created RMA must be referenced to validate each refund transaction. Customer RMAs also serve as an extra security step in the refund process. This type of transaction is most commonly associated with mail order and telephone order type businesses.
This feature requires activation in Setup Accounts Receivable.

| Q01. | Why would I need to create a customer RMA? Why not just issue a refund? |
| A01. | Customer RMAs are used when a company has a high volume of returns or when customers are sending a return item by mail, courier, etc. RMAs are used to stop unauthorized returns and to ensure that items that were not allowed to be returned are not accepted back into inventory. |
| Q02. | I don't see my question here. Where else can I get information? |
