### Return a Temporary Sale

### Overview

This guide will help you record an authorized return through the Temporary Sale Return workflow.

Muhasib stores the temporary return; whether it posts stock or financial entries immediately must be established by system testing.

### Who can do this

You need access to Temporary Sale Return and needed customer, item, location, batch, and serial.

### Before you start

Identify the source temporary sale and get approval for items, quantities, destination, and customer settlement.
