You can make these changes on the General Policies Settings page. 

Here you have the ability to customize the following settings: 

  • Return Window Start Date

    • Order Date - Return Window starts the date the order was created.

    • Shipment Date - Return Window starts the date the order was shipped (most recent date for multi-part fulfillments).

  • Enable Returns Before Fulfillment

    • Enabled - Unfulfilled order line items can be returned.

    • Disabled - Only fulfilled order line items can be returned (If an order line item is partially fulfilled, returns will be allowed up to, but not exceeding, the fulfilled quantity).

  • Label Expiration Period

    • The number of days after the RMA is created that the shopper has to ship their items (Note: This setting is used to push the shopper to return their items and will not actually cause the shipping label to expire).

  • Include Tax in Product Prices

    • Tax Included - Tax is included in the price of your products (Select this if your country uses VAT or taxes are otherwise included in the price of your products).

    • Tax Excluded - Tax is not included in your products' prices and is calculated at the time of sale.

  • Store Credit Expiration

    • The number of days after a store credit is issued that it expires. The number 0 can be used to make the credit period indefinite.

Advanced:

  • Originate Mode

    • Classic Mode - Order items are aggregated into single return lines. A quantity option is displayed to select the number of units to return.

    • Modern Mode - Order items are broken out into individual return items. An item with an order quantity greater than 1 will display multiple return lines.

  • Order Lookup

    • Order Name / Number - The customer will enter their email address and the order number or order name, including prefixes and suffixes (i.e. KITTEH1001).

    • Order Email - The customer will enter their email address and a link will be sent to them. The system will automatically look up any orders that fall within the returns window.

  • Receipt Validation

    • Enabled - Ensure that all items have been received in Collector before allowing RMA to be processed in Originate.

    • Disabled - Allow RMA to be processed in Originate before all items have been received in Collector.

  • Auto Complete RMAs

    • Yes - Automatically mark RMAs as completed and send customer notification when all items have been processed.

    • No - Manually mark RMAs as completed and send customer notification when all items have been processed.
