# Supplier return

The `Rtv` family — 3 operations.

A supplier return (RTV) sends stock back to the supplier — lines of variants with quantities, a canned reason, and the source bucket they leave from. Compose it while draft against the supplier account (optionally referencing one purchase order), approve it, ship it (stock leaves; there is no cancel after ship), then record the supplier credit — acknowledging any variance from the expectation. Cancelling covers draft and approved.
