Your graphic for what you call two work flows shows the exact same thing for both
and has nothing to do with the OP question

Hi All!
We create a PO for 50 widgets. We receive the 50 widgets. We "entered a bill against inventory" for 50 widgets. We find out that 5 of them are bad. We return 5 of the widgets. We receive credit for the widgets.
In our old system we "unreceived" the widgets and matched that up with the vendor credit. The PO showed that we were still due 5 more widgets. The new widgets come in and we receive the 5 widgets. We "enter a bill against inventory" for those 5 widgets.
Is there a way to do something like this in Quickbooks?
You do not unreceive what you did in fact receive
enter the bill for the full qty, that stocks the item
5 are bad, so do a vendor credit memo in QB (enter bill, at the top left set it to credit, list the item and qty on th item tab and save. (in real life you send them back or not depends on what the vendor wants). That vendor credit memo set a vendor credit for the 5 returned
when you get the 5 in, enter the bill and then in pay bills apply the credit to the bill, save the zero dollar bill. That puts them back in stock
