Issue: MAP of an article drastically increased during return STO

Role: I have investigated the issue and found that when there is a return STO raised to return stock from store to DC. The standard SAP uses the MAP of the supplying site in the STO though it is a ‘Return item’ and stock is dispatched from store.
