About Vendor RMAs
Vendor RMAs are used to provide a formal request to a vendor for goods or services that your company intends to return. A bill reference is available for each line item, to facilitate returns from separate shipments. Vendor RMAs can easily be converted into purchase credits, once a vendor has approved the returns.

| Q01. | Do I have to make a vendor RMA prior to creating a purchase credit? |
| A01. | No. But Vendor RMAs have the benefit of not affecting your inventory or general ledger. Thus, you can make these transactions to send to your vendors and when they respond with an approval, you can create a purchase credit transaction that will properly affect your inventory and general ledger at the correct moment. |
| Q02. | I don't see my question here. Where else can I get information? |
