Vendors and returns

Follow every return through to the money the shop recovered.

Track supplier returns, refunds, credits, replacements, and unresolved value while comparing purchasing outcomes across vendors.

What this changes

Recover open value

Find returned parts that still have no confirmed credit, refund, or replacement.

Compare suppliers fairly

Review spend, return frequency, outcomes, and unresolved value with the underlying orders attached.

Close the loop

Give each RMA a clear status and financial outcome instead of leaving it in an email thread.

Why it matters

A clearer way to answer the operating question.

Sending a defective or incorrect part back is only the beginning. ShopBrain keeps the return connected to its original order and records whether the final outcome was a refund, account credit, replacement, or no recovery.

How it works

From source evidence to a useful decision.

01

Connect the return

Relate the RMA to the vendor order and purchased line that created the claim.

02

Record the response

Track shipment, vendor confirmation, and the promised refund, credit, or replacement.

03

Verify recovery

Close the return only when the final outcome and value are recorded.

Included capabilities

The practical pieces behind the outcome.

RMA lifecycle tracking
Refund and credit outcomes
Replacement tracking

Plain answers

What owners usually ask.

Can ShopBrain submit an RMA for me?+

No. ShopBrain tracks the evidence and outcome, but your team continues to communicate with the vendor and make the return.

Can I compare vendors?+

Yes. Vendor views bring together confirmed purchases, landed cost, returns, recovery outcomes, and unresolved value.
