Where to Go

Go to the Order page, in the top-right corner, hit Select Action.

Click 'Select Action'

At the bottom, click on Start Return.

Click 'Start Return'

Fill in the Details

Now you’ll see a few fields to fill out. First, check the box next to the model you want to return, type in the quantity, and then check the fulfillment type.

Pro tip: If the item hasn’t left your warehouse yet, uncheck the Restocking Fee — this helps your customer avoid extra charges.

Then, type in your Reason for Return.

Click here

In the Return Payment section, change the Payment Method to Customer Credit. This means instead of sending money back to the customer, you’re storing it as credit that they can use later.
