The example below demonstrates processing an exchange for an item of equal value to the original product.

  • Select the Exchange Icon to begin.

  • Enter the original Sales Order number, if known, then click "OK".
  • To create a new exchange that does not reference an order number, leave this field blank and click "OK".

  • For this example, we entered an existing sales order, No. 502.
  • The order appears as shown below, with the product being exchanged highlighted in red.
  • The original payment type appears in the payment section.
  • The total due to the customer is also displayed at the bottom.

  • Add the replacement product to the order. The replacement product appears in green.
  • Since no payment is due to the custom in an equal exchange, no further action is needed. Click the "Checkout" button to process the transaction.

  • The sales receipt will appear as shown below.

In the back office, the exchange will create a Sales Return for the product that was exchanged, and a new Sales Order for the new item added to the order.

  • The Sales Return will display payment method as "Issue Credit". This indicates that a credit value is created for the amount of the product (the credit is then applied against the product that is being exchanged, as shown in the Sales Order further below).

  • The Sales Order will display payment method as "Apply Credit". This indicates the credit that was created on the Sales Return has been applied to this order.
