Definition
Refund and return to stock
A refund reverses some or all of a sale's money; a return to stock puts the goods back on the shelf. They are separate decisions and should be recorded separately.
A damaged item is refunded but not restocked. A change of mind is both. Recording the refund beside the original sale, instead of editing the sale, keeps last month's revenue stable and lets reports show gross and net.
