API details for the Items xml format for Returns

[bbolt510]

I created an example for returning an order with the items listed into the Sandbox API Reference tool using my sandbox account. I see the reference return Elements and documentation but I can not seem to get it to work.  So the first quest is simple.  1) can and should I be capable to process a return with the items returned in the tool. 2) I really can't find any details anywhere on the internet on how to return an item and credit a customer's account.   I can do a VOID order and FULL Return minus the items.  (Simple).   But I really would like to include the items in the process of  "Refund a Transaction".   Below is the example that I put together.

<createTransactionRequest xmlns="AnetApi/xml/v1/schema/AnetApiSchema.xsd">
<merchantAuthentication>
<name>XXXXXXXXXX</name>
<transactionKey>XXXXXXXXXXXXXX</transactionKey>
</merchantAuthentication>
<refId>8854XX</refId>
<transactionRequest>
<transactionType>refundTransaction</transactionType>
<amount>58.30</amount>
<payment>
<creditCard>
<cardNumber>8888</cardNumber>
<expirationDate>XXXX</expirationDate>
</creditCard>
</payment>
<refTransId>80015474393</refTransId>
<lineItem>
<itemId>25774</itemId>
<name>VARDAR2324NIKEPRECISIONVIJERSE</name>
<quanity>1</quanity>
<unitPrice>55.00</unitPrice>
<taxable>Y</taxable>
</lineItem>
<tax>
<amount>3.30</amount>
<name>MICHIGAN</name>
</tax>
</transactionRequest>
</createTransactionRequest>

Error response:

  <messages>
    <resultCode>Error</resultCode>
    <message>
      <code>E00003</code>
