    The Problem

    Returns involve multiple systems and teams — the storefront, warehouse, ERP, and payment processor. Without automation, returns are slow, customers wait weeks for refunds, and inventory isn't restocked promptly, leading to lost sales and poor customer experience.

    How The Workflow Works

    1

    Customer initiates a return on the storefront

    2

    RMA number is generated and return label is created

    3

    Return shipment is tracked until received at warehouse

    4

    Warehouse inspects and processes the return

    5

    APIWORX creates credit memo in the ERP

    6

    Refund is issued through the payment processor

    7

    Inventory is adjusted for restockable items

    8

    Return status is updated on the storefront
