Returns inward and Returns outward

I probably should know this by now but are these

Returns inward = Sales Returns? deduct from Sales Revenue?
Returns outward = Purchase Returns? deduct from Purchases?

return inwards deduct from sales revenue and returns outwards deduct from purchases

Thanks, I'm relieved as I recently saw this but won't know if I got it right or not. I'm sure when I did L2 a couple of years ago with Osbourne Books that there were Sales, Sales Returns, Purchases and Purchase Returns. It's a real pain that accountancy has so many alternative terms
