# Put Back

Return stock that was picked for a cancelled order to its bins, with a put back.

When an order is cancelled after it's been picked, the stock is sitting in a tote, not on the shelf. A put back in OrderEazi is a list of the picked stock to return, bin by bin. Putting it back adds the stock to its bins again, so it can be sold.

### Before you start

You'll need:

* **Permissions:** To put stock back, **Perform Picking/Put Back**, in the **Warehousing** permission group. To manage put backs, **Picking Slip/Put Back Supervisor**, **View and Use as Manager**, or **View and Use as Administrator**.
* **A picking printer:** You scan the same printer pickers use to get their picking slips. See [Printers](/central/warehouse-management/management/printers.md).
* **Live picking:** **Live Picking Enabled** must be on in [Warehouse settings](/central/warehouse-management/warehouse-settings.md). Without it, scanning doesn't add the stock back to its bins.

### How a put back is created

A put back is created for you when a Sales Order that's already been picked is cancelled. See [How to cancel a Sales Order](/central/warehouse-management/outbound/sales-orders.md#how-to-cancel-a-sales-order). It lists each picked product, with the quantity, and the bin it was picked from.

### How to put stock back

1. In the warehouse menu, select **Outbound** > **Get Put Back**.
2. Scan the picking printer's barcode. The next put back prints.
3. Select **Start Put Back**.
4. Scan the put back's barcode into **Put Back Barcode**.
5. Go to the bin shown.
6. Scan the bin's barcode.
7. Scan each unit of the product going back.
8. If you're asked to enter a quantity, type the total you're putting back.
9. Repeat steps 5 to 8 for each line.

Each scan adds the stock to the bin again. When every line is done, the put back's status changes to **Fully Picked**.

**Example:** Sales Order SO001044 is cancelled after Sipho picked 40 units of CHAIR-01 from A-07 and 6 of MUG-11 from C-02. A put back, PB000057, is created. Lerato scans the picking printer, gets PB000057, and scans it. She scans A-07 and the 40 chairs, then C-02 and the 6 mugs.

If you see "You can only scan a Put Back barcode in this process", you scanned a picking slip. Scan the put back's barcode instead. If you see "This put back could not be opened because it is assigned to \[name]", with a person's name in place of \[name], someone else is working on it. Ask a supervisor.

### How to manage put backs

1. In the warehouse menu, select **Outbound** > **Put Back**.
2. Filter the list the same way as [picking slips](/central/warehouse-management/outbound/picking.md#how-to-manage-picking-slips).
3. Select **Filter**.

In a put back's row, select the gear for these:

* **View:** This shows the put back's lines.
* **Print:** This prints the put back.
* **Remove User:** This takes the put back away from the person working on it, so it can be handed out again.
