Create a Refund with the Refund Workflow
Before you can create a refund, you should create a return. The refund workflow can be customized to individual needs. For the sake of explanation, we describe the default refund workflow for creating a refund.
- Navigate to Sales → Returns and click on the return you want to create a refund for.
2. When a return is requested, the return will be entered into the system. In the top right of the page, you will see buttons.
3. When the returned products are received, click on ”Return Received”.
4. Now, you can verify the contents. Did you receive the products that were in the original return request? Click ”Contents Verified”. Otherwise, click ”Contents not Verified”.
5. Inspect the contents. Are the products eligible for a refund? Click ”Credit (Inspection OK)”. Otherwise, click ”Inspection not OK”.
6. When the inspection was OK a refund will be created.
7. Navigate to Sales → Refunds. Here you will find an overview of all refunds. The newly created refund appears at the top of the list.
