Customer Returns Authorisation for Manufacturers

What You Can Do

Practical tools for running manufacturing workflows without disconnected spreadsheets or duplicate data entry.

Authorise customer returns

Create a controlled return record before products come back into the business, with the customer, product and order context kept together.

Link back to sales orders

Connect the return to the original customer order or sales order so the team can see what was supplied, when it shipped and why it came back.

Track reason and rectification

Record the reason for the return, what needs to happen next and whether the part will be inspected, re-worked, replaced or credited.

Manage replacement shipment

Keep visibility of any replacement or re-worked parts that need re-shipping after rectification, instead of handling the follow-up in emails.

Connect to quality records

Link customer returns to NCRs, corrective actions and traceability records when the return points to a wider quality issue.
