Let's not go round in circles. I already pointed this out in my earlier reply to Winston. It has been snipped from the thread history so I'll repeat it here: "You will also need to document the generic function in your package. A minimal functioning help page that cross-references to the dplyr package should be sufficient" Duncan gives more details on the cross reference in his reply.
Perhaps help() should be intelligent enough to link the documentation of `FUN` from package A for package B when B imports `FUN` from A, and exports it in B's NAMESPACE. The package name of A may be obtained from environmentName(environment(FUN)). At the moment, since R CMD check will warn against the missing documentation of `FUN` in B, I have to copy FUN.Rd from A to B in this case, which seems to be inefficient and not a best way to maintain. Did I miss anything in the R-exts manual?

Ah, it works! Thank you!
