Return Items without Original Invoice (Negative Quantities)
1. select either the customer returning the item or use the default (**Thank You**) customer to proceed to the transaction window, as with a normal sale.
Next, in the transaction window, enter the SKU or code of the item being returned, again as during a normal sale. Once you have entered the item, highlight it in the window and then on the bottom screen, press Change Qty button or F9 key.
The Change Quantity window will appear. Use the New Qty field to enter in the quantity of the item(s) being returned as a negative number. Then press Make Changes to apply your changes. You will be sent back to the transaction window.
Now, use the Finish & Pay button to process the payment as you would for any normal sale. The payment window will pop up with a red negative number in the amount owing field, signifying that the customer is owed that amount. Enter a negative payment amount into the field for the payment method you wish to use and click the Complete Transaction button to complete the return. (See: Processing Payments)

The Qty To Return column below will change to reflect your selections. Repeat for each item on the invoice that you wish to return.
