In addition to a straightforward return of goods the system can also be set up to allow for the goods to be inspected immediately by an employee of your company during the return process. This step is useful in determining if the goods can be returned to stock (to be resold afterwards), or, if they should be placed in the NCC location in your warehouse to await for either its destruction or return to supplier. For more information see the Panel help for the Work with item disposal suggestions program.
