Product return management
This is a process to manage returns, with refund or exchange options.
Workflow Steps
Step 1 - Customer Initiates Return via Portal
A customer requests a return through an online self-service portal, selecting the item and the reason for the return.
Step 2 - Automated RMA Approval & Shipping Label
The system automatically approves the return (if it is within the return policy window) and provides the customer with a pre-paid shipping label.
Step 3 - Warehouse Receives & Inspects Return
The warehouse receives the returned item and inspects it to confirm it is the correct item and to assess its condition (e.g., new, damaged, used).
Step 4 - Process Refund or Exchange
Based on the inspection result, the finance team automatically processes a refund to the customer, or a replacement item is shipped to them. The inventory system is updated accordingly.
