Handling Refunds and Part Returns in Tekmetric

Refund and part return processes within Tekmetric involve precise workflows based on the situation. Below, we outline the key steps to handle these scenarios efficiently.

Overview of Refund Invoices and Part Returns

Tekmetric allows handling refund scenarios through specific processes. However, returning a part alongside issuing a refund often requires reopening the repair order.

Refund Without Returning Parts

If the refund requires no part return, you can simply issue a refund invoice. A refund invoice is exclusively for refunding the customer, and it cannot accommodate part returns by itself. Key Points:

• Refund invoices are suitable when only the refunded amount needs adjustment.
• There’s no need to reopen the repair order for this process.

Refund and Return Process

When both a refund and part return are required, the repair order must be reopened. Here’s how you handle this scenario:

1. Reopen the repair order in Tekmetric.
2. Navigate to PartsHub
3. View received parts and select "return part"
4. Enter the quantity you wish to return and select "save"

Key Takeaways

• Use refund invoices for straightforward monetary refunds without involving part returns.
• Always reopen repair orders for refunds that also involve part returns, ensuring proper inventory adjustments.
• Non-integrated payment refunds can be voided and reissued without duplicating refunds, offering flexibility in invoice management.
