Streamline Return Material Authorization

AMICS RMA Module

AMICS

The AMICS RMA Module (Return Material Authorization), an essential part of our Advanced Manufacturing and Inventory Control Software, provides an easy return solution for managing customer returns, repairs, and exchanges. Specifically, the module integrates customer information, customer orders, and shipment data to create a centralized, efficient return process. This module works in conjunction with the Inventory Module to ensure that all returned items are accurately received and tracked. As a result, companies gain critical insights through standard reports like “Inventory by Location,” “Inventory Value,” and a detailed “Transaction Log Report.”
