NetSuite Returns Management

Simplify the returns process, provide a better customer experience

What is NetSuite Returns Management?

The returns management capabilities within NetSuite Order Management simplify the returns process and increase profitability by ensuring items are immediately returned to inventory and available to sell. With it, companies can accept returns from all channels, complete exchanges, manage the credit and how the return will be handled and set returns process rules. NetSuite eliminates common points of failure with disparate systems, ensuring that returns are managed accurately and saleable items make it back into available-to-promise (ATP) inventory without delay.

Grow Customer Loyalty

Use the returns experience as an opportunity to increase customer loyalty by providing an intuitive, simple experience and provide consistent communication throughout the process.

Real-time Visibility

Share information on returns, exchanges, warranty claims and repair throughout the organization. Customer support staff can track issues with NetSuite case management capabilities, send automatic updates and provide the latest information upon request.

NetSuite is the perfect convergence point for different datasets. We're able to see customer interactions, the status of order lines, inventory detail and shipment information at-a-glance from a single application.

NetSuite Returns Management Benefits

Save the Sale. Customer service reps have all the information and inventory visibility they need to offer alternative products and fulfillment options to convert returns into exchanges.

NetSuite Returns Management Features

With user-controlled rules that enable a business to accept returns across all channels, fulfill exchanges and manage the credit process, NetSuite facilitates a simple, painless returns experience for customers.

Return Merchandise Authorization Management

Easily turn a situation consumers often dread into a positive experience with an efficient process that uses case management to give everyone the latest information. From the moment a customer first contacts you about a return, they receive status updates via email and access to a portal where they can provide any additional information, if necessary.

Warranty & Repair

Define different warranty profiles including type of coverage, start date, time period and more, then apply those warranties to specific products. Depending on the criteria, NetSuite can automatically generate the warranty registration upon shipment or delay it until the end user completes an online form or returns a card for manual processing. Should a product need to be repaired, that entire process can be managed within case management and work orders to receive, repair and replace the unit while keeping customers updated on the progress.

Customer Refund Management

Once a return material authorization (RMA) number has been assigned to an order, it's critical to identify and execute the next steps, whether they be to advance ship a replacement, ship upon return, return for investigation/repair or issue a refund. In all cases, NetSuite will walk you through the steps required to ensure the right outcome. When refunds are necessary, NetSuite makes it easy to process and submit them in the form of a check or credit card refund.

Challenges NetSuite Returns Management Solves

Obsolete Inventory. Returned items are immediately returned to inventory so they can be sold again before they decline in value and become obsolete.
High Return Costs. With insight into company-wide inventory availability, customer service and sales reps can offer buyers alternative products, styles, sizes or colors to replace the purchased item instead of a return.
Limited Visibility for Customer Service. A claim or return links the customer, purchase and item with the claim in NetSuite, providing customer service reps with all relevant information.
