You can execute the following return postings for an inbound delivery
item:
Quantity cancellation with material document (for example, with
movement type 102).
Return delivery without creating an outbound delivery (material
document is generated, for example, with movement type 122).
Return delivery with outbound delivery. When the outbound delivery is
posted as a goods issue, the material document is created (for example,
with movement type 122).

return postings mentioned above. Whether the outbound delivery has not
yet been posted as a goods receipt, has been posted as a goods receipt
or has been cencelled is of no importance in the determination of the
proposed quantity.

following case:
One or more outbound deliveries have been created and posted for goods
issue for this inbound delivery item and one or more of these postings
have or will be cancelled and so a return posting quantity is required.
