One screen.
Field Sales — Visits and Returns¶
Field
For representatives working away from the office: logging a visit, and collecting goods a customer is sending back.
What you see¶
Three tabs: Visits (the log), Log Visit (checking in), and Returns (collecting and approving).
On Visits: customer, start, end, the coordinates if they were captured, notes, tasks and status.
Fields¶
| Field | What goes in it |
|---|---|
| Customer | Required on both Log Visit and Returns. Type-ahead. |
| Notes | Optional, three lines. |
| Item, Quantity, Condition, Reason | A return. Condition is sellable, damaged or expired. |
Buttons¶
| Button | When you can use it | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Check in | Once a customer is chosen. | Requests the device location, waits about three seconds and logs the visit either way — a refused or slow fix does not lose the visit, it just records no coordinates. Then switches to the Visits tab. |
| Log return | Once a customer and an item are chosen. | Logs the return, awaiting back-office approval. |
| Approve | Only for someone with permission to decide returns. | Asks first, warning that this issues a credit memo to the customer and takes the stock back. It is the only button on this screen that moves money. |
| Reject | Same. | Asks first, warning that no credit memo is issued and the goods stay where they are. The confirm button is red. |
Rules this screen enforces¶
- A representative sees the return listed but no Approve or Reject button — those appear only for someone with edit permission on returns.
- The visit start time is the moment the button is pressed.
When there is nothing to show¶
| Where | What it says |
|---|---|
