Overview of Return Process in Axanta POS

The Axanta Point of Sale (POS) system provides a versatile framework for managing customer returns and exchanges through four distinct operational workflows. These methods are designed to accommodate various common retail scenarios, whether the customer possesses a receipt, is registered in the system, or is making a simple exchange without documentation. The core functionality across all methods marks returned items with a negative quantity, clearly indicating their status in the transaction. Key capabilities include processing returns with or without a receipt, initiating returns from a central transaction journal, looking up a customer's purchase history, and facilitating multi-store returns by leveraging data from the Axanta ERP back office. This ensures that retail staff can efficiently handle returns, exchanges, and refunds directly from the POS terminal.
