Read the receipt’s completed state and damaged-item destination.
Distinguish Exchange flow, Bad (to Scrap) condition and Damaged reason.
Follow the original and replacement delivery links from the same RMA tab.
Actual Pro-A-Motors interface captures. Private identities and contact details are covered or outside the crop; screen data has not been replaced.
What improved
Keep the returned item and its replacement connected.
The business problem
A damaged return and a resellable return should not follow an indistinguishable path. An exchange also needs a clear connection between the item received and the replacement sent.
What we changed
Return condition and reason travel with the original delivery, exchange receipt and replacement movement.
What the team can do now
Customer service and the warehouse can follow the same chain from the original delivery through the return and replacement.
Read the actual screen
The return and replacement stay distinguishable.
The inspected receipt is Done and its ProA RMA section identifies an Exchange, a Bad (to Scrap) condition and a Damaged reason.

What the screen shows
The destination is the damaged-item return location. The workflow section contains separate original-delivery and replacement-delivery references.
What the team does next
Use condition and flow to understand the returned item’s route, then follow the linked replacement instead of treating it as unrelated stock work.
What the next team receives
Customer service and warehouse staff can trace which delivery was returned and which movement replaces it.
How the work moves
Follow the work from one decision to the next.
01
Classify the request
Start from the original completed delivery. Choose return or exchange, capture condition, and select a reason.
02
Receive with context
The return receipt retains the reason and condition so the warehouse can follow the configured route.
03
Trace the replacement
Validating the exchange receipt creates linked replacement work, with duplicate-creation protection.

Make the exceptions part of the workflow.
Condition changes the route
Good returns and damaged returns should not be treated as the same incoming stock.
Exchange is a linked flow
Original delivery, return receipt and replacement are separate movements connected by the RMA workflow.
A capture is not an execution test
The existing Done receipt provides visible traceability; no replacement or stock return was created for this case.
Existing records are shown as captured. Private identities are covered or outside the crop. No business records were changed for this collection. Implementation history supports behavior beyond the visible screen; a still image is not an end-to-end test or a measured productivity result.
Pro-A-Motors stock-flow extensions build on Odoo transfers and coexist with BrowseInfo RMA modules and the Emipro Amazon connector.
