How do I process a return at the warehouse?
Log an incoming return, inspect the items, and choose the right disposition.
When a return arrives at the warehouse, log it in the Returns dashboard so the client is notified and inventory stays accurate.
Log the return
- Go to Returns in the admin sidebar.
- Click "New Return" or open the existing return record if the client created it.
- Search for the original order by order number, customer name, or tracking number.
- Select the items being returned and confirm the quantities.
Inspect and choose a disposition
After receiving the package, inspect each item and pick a disposition:
- Restock — item is in resellable condition and goes back into available inventory.
- Inspect — item needs further review before a decision is made.
- Discard — item is damaged or unsellable and will not be added back to stock.
Complete the return
Click "Mark Complete" when the return is fully processed. The client will receive a notification with the final disposition.
