V8 - Rentals returns and the Rental returns list

To use the rental/consignment features of SOS Inventory (available on Plus and Pro plans only), go to Settings menu > Inventory settings and turn on the Rental inventory option. Once done, you will see the Rentals and Rental returns options (under Operations menu > More transactions). You will also have an additional location called Out for rental, which will contain all items that are currently rented. This location is non-nettable.

For a general overview of how lists work in SOS Inventory, refer to List functions. See Action and batch action descriptions for more information about the actions available on lists.

Adding and editing rental returns

When a customer rents an item from you, enter a rental transaction via the Rentals list (Operations menu > More transactions > Rentals). This tells the system that the item is rented with a specific due date.

To add a rental return, use any of the following methods:

• Recommended method: Generate a rental return from a rental transaction record. 
  • Locate the rental transaction on the Rentals list (Operations menu > More transactions > Rentals).
  • On the rental record's Actions menu, select Create rental return.
  • Modify the rental return if needed, then save the transaction.
     
• On the Task bar, go to Quick add > Misc > Rental return.
   
• Go to Operations menu > More transactions > Rental returns, then select Add new.

An existing rental return can be opened for editing by selecting the Edit button on the rental return transaction. Be sure to save your changes.
