1. Introduction

After the order is processed, there still might have some unexpected changes, such as customers suddenly cancelling their orders. By using Order Processing Tools, such as Order Fulfillment Assistant and Carrier Manifest, you are able to cross-check the status of the orders before packing and shipping them out. Other than that, these features help you to make sure the correct items are being picked and packed to reduce customer return orders.

On the other hand, we know that sometimes customer return orders are unavoidable. Marketplace Order Return Management helps you to record your return order and you may easily restock the item’s quantity to inventory.

4. Marketplace Order Return Management

Sometimes, you may face a problem whereby the product is delivered to the customer, however, due to some unexpected circumstances, the customers might request a return and refund of the order. Another situation is, the parcel might fail to deliver to the customer due to some reasons, and you are unsure whether the parcel has been returned to you. With Marketplace Order Return Management, you can systematically manage your order returns and restock the items back into your inventory.

Step 1: Go to Order > Marketplace Order Return from the sidebar menu.

Step 2: Filter the date (by default is 30 days from the current date) > click on the Sync Customer Return Order button to retrieve the marketplace return orders.

Step 3: Sync Summary will pop up and you can see how many orders have been synced back from each marketplace.

Step 4: The orders will be listed under the Customer Return and Refund tab.

Step 5: In the case of Failed Delivery and Return, you will need to scan or insert the Original Tracking Number in the Failed Delivery and Return section to retrieve the order.

📌Note: Failed Delivery orders required scanning or inserting tracking numbers into the interface manually due to API limitations. This is because the API provided by marketplaces only allows the system to capture Customer Return orders.

Step 6: The scanned or inserted order will be listed and recorded down.

Step 7: When you received the return parcel from the customer or the courier, you can check the Return parcel has been received column for your record.

Step 8: You may add Parcel Received Date and Remark by clicking on Edit Note under the Notes section > Save.

Step 9: Orders that are already marked received will be marked with a green tick under the Received column.

Step 10: If the item returned by the customer is in good condition and you decided to restore the item to inventory, you may click on the Select Stock In Draft > Restored the stock > click Add Item To Draft.

Step 11: Once the stock has been restored, click Revert Stock In From Draft to change the stock again(if needed) > click Proceed Stock In.

1. Proceed Stock In: You may proceed to submit the draft stock with the latest Stock Draft that you are created. 
3. Reselect Stock In Draft: You can Add Stock In Draft or Select if dont want to use current Stock Draft.

Step 12: Once you click Proceed Stock In, you will be redirected to the Stock In page > click Save.

Step 13: When the order is shipped and fulfilled, the order status in SiteGiant will be updated to Completed, which will be the last status of the order. When the order is returned, the order status will not automatically update to marketplace status. Thus, you can manually mark the order as the Returned status for your record.

Step 14: The order status on the All Orders page will change from Completed to Returned.
