Manual Admin Return

This is a guide on how to start a manual admin return in the dashboard.

Updated over 11 months ago

Admin returns are perfect for dealing with more unusual customer requests, for instance returns that are outside their returns window, charging a custom amount or offering a free return. You can even use an admin return if shipment has arrived at your warehouse without being created first via our portal.

Customer notifications with the shipment label

When creating a return with a shipment label, the customer will automatically get an email with the return label in their inbox. They will also be able to login to the return portal and find their return details and label within returns tab.

Customer notifications without shipment label

If you create a return with no shipment, just for bookkeeping purposes, the customer will not receive an automated email. They will still be able to see the return in their return portal when logged in without a label.
