Starting a No-Receipt Return

Not every return comes with a receipt. This covers building one from scratch instead of loading an original purchase.

This release is rolling out gradually and may not be available to all clients yet. It's part of the same rollout as "Returns With a Receipt" — read that article first for the shared basics (item selection, restock, return reason, and notes). This one covers what's different when there's no receipt. See "Choosing a Refund Method" for the payment side of any return, receipted or not.

How No-Receipt Returns Work

  • A manager PIN is required. Since there's no original sale to check against, starting a return without a receipt needs manager approval before you can proceed.

  • You build the return by adding items, not selecting from an order. Scan a UPC or search the catalog to add whatever's being returned, the same way you'd search for items on a sale.

  • Everything else works the same as a receipted return. Per-item restock choice, an optional return reason, and an optional note all work identically — see "Returns With a Receipt" for those.


Starting a Return Without a Receipt

Step 1

From the return entry prompt, choose to continue without a receipt instead of scanning one.


​Step 2

Enter a manager PIN to proceed.

Step 3

Add items to the return by scanning a UPC or searching the catalog — the same way you'd add items to any sale.

Step 4

Choose restock for each item, and optionally a return reason and note, then continue to the refund step — see "Choosing a Refund Method."


Troubleshooting

  • Asked for a manager PIN and don't have one handy. Expected for any no-receipt return — it requires manager approval since there's no original sale to verify against.
