Introduction: Enhanced Return Process (TW, DD)

Overview

There are two return processes in Tyler:

  • Standard Return Process
  • Enhanced Return Process

Unlike Tyler’s Standard Return Process, the Enhanced Return Process requires that you locate the original transaction that an item was sold on and return the item at its original price.

The Enhanced Return Process is activated by entering a ‘Y’ at the ‘Returns req. Orig.Trans/Line#’ preference (Field 27) of Trans Entry Pre-Prompt (02-18-01).

There are six tutorials that describe how to use the Enhanced Return Process. We recommend viewing them in the following order:

Initial Steps

Because of this, we will describe the initial steps in this tutorial and skip them in the other Enhanced Return Process tutorials.
