  4. Detailed Process Description • Returnables Processing • The initial activity is to create a standard sales order. A delivery will be created based on the initial sales order. A pallet (returnable packaging) will be added to the delivery during the pick and ship steps of the process. The last step within this sub process is billing. • Two options exits to return the pallets: • Pallet return order with pallet return delivery and goods receipt • Pallet return delivery w/o reference and goods receipt • A debit note request can be raised in case the customer does not return the pallets. Triggered by billing, the system will issue the debit note based on the debit note request. • The last step is to synchronize the consignment stock quantity and value. Therefore a manual goods issue must be posted for the unreturned pallets.
