How to create an RMA.
This will demonstrate the basics of how to enter an RMA (return merchandise authorization)
When a customer requests an RMA we first need to verify the cause of the return.
- Was the part ordered incorrectly?
- Was the part shipped out incorrectly?
- Was the part quoted incorrectly?
- Something else?
Depending on which issue the customer has, you may need to check with your team lead to see if there are any exceptions to the normal return policy that would apply.
To enter the RMA you will need to have the original order number. Enter the order number into the CUSORD screen. Bring up the order acknowledgment.
