close/hide submenu on click

Question

I have been experimenting with a particular website and everything looks exactly how I want it. I have a drop-up which has selections. I then have a submenu that opens on click. I need to have the submenu on top of the drop-up which it does. I then need to have the submenu close on click where the "Return to Menu" link is but keep the drop-up open.

I have gotten to a point where the "Return to Menu" link doesn't close the entire drop-up but it simply does nothing where before, it was closing the entire drop-up every time I clicked on it.

Another issue is when I click on one of the other links in the submenu, it works fine by closing the drop-up but when clicking on the drop-up button it doesn't refresh and keeps showing the submenu.

Not sure if this can be done and I am reasonably new to JS and I have played around with the JS settings quite a lot.The current JS may not be correct so ignore that or if I have to adjust it a bit. I have created a fiddle to show you what I mean and if it can't be done, I appreciate the time and effort in helping me.

Here is my code.

HTML

    window.onload=function(){
      
//Dropdown Start
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('.dropdown-menu a.dropdown-list').on("click", function(e) {
    $(this).parent().parent().find('.dropdown-list').show();
    $(this).next('li').toggle();
    e.stopPropagation();
  });
});
// Dropdown End


    }

Welcome to stackoverflow @Denlyn.

I added some minimal changes to your code. Think it should work.

    window.onload=function(){
      
//Dropdown Start
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('.dropdown-menu a.dropdown-list').on("click", function(e) {
    $(this).parent().parent().find('.dropdown-list').show();
    $(this).next('li').toggle();
    e.stopPropagation();
  });

  $('.return-link').on('click', function() {
    $('.submmenu').hide();
  });

$('.go-to-submenu').on('click', function() {
    $('.submmenu').show();
});
});
// Dropdown End


    }

     /* Body Start */
body {
  background-color: #b3d1ff ;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-attachment: fixed;
  background-size: cover;
}

/* Body End */

/* ============================================================================ */

/* Navbar Start */
.nav-text {
  color: #000 !important;
  font-size: 14px;
  margin-bottom: 5px;
}

.navbar {
  background: rgba (153, 153, 153, 0.5);
  position: fixed;
  height: 45px;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100% !important;
}

.navbar .right-text {
  float: right;
  margin: 0;
  margin-right: 10px;
}

/* Navbar End */

/* ============================================================================ */
button:focus {
  outline: none !important;
}


.button {
  background: transparent !important;
  background-color: transparent !important;
  border: none;
}

.dropup {
  left: 0 !important;
}

.dropdown-menu.columns-2 {

.dropdown-menu.columns-3 {
  min-width: 600px;
}

.dropdown-menu li a {
  padding: 5px 15px;
  font-weight: 300;
}



.3-column-drop {
  list-style: none !important;
}

.3-column-drop li a {
  display: inline-block;
