Hold/Activate  The selected claim can be rejected and held. This is a temporary status where the status is ‘05’ (Outstanding Rejected). Rejected claim indicates that the claim is in dispute and may or may not be accepted. Therefore it is still an outstanding request for a credit. If a rejected held claim is accepted then this option can be used to activate it.

Maintain claim Allows maintenance on the selected claim. Claims that have already been received can not be maintained.

  5. Select the item to split, enter the transfer quantity and click OK.
  6. Repeat step 5 for the remaining bulk return items if required.
