- Most of our customers order multiple items so most returns are for a subset of the items on an order.
- Customers can pay using points, card, paypal or gift certificate
- We do not force customers to open accounts so some customers send goods back without prior authorisation.
Hello,
We have run into this issue as well, hence we are now literally rewriting the RMA addon to at least make more sense, as its pretty useless right now. Besides that, I also think there ought to be some kind of ticket integration in CS-Cart for proper RMA, but I will see to that later.
For now, just create a seperate email address for returns or create a form in the pages section, to allow people to apply for refunds. Then just create a separate order status and put in the customer notes what has been returned.
Kind regards,

I did initially start with a returns page form, which works just a notification method but doesn't have any real functional value.
So far I have been reduced to issuing refunds manually from the payment service provider and putting a note on the order details just as you suggest but that is not sufficient for when we download the sales data at the end of the month to run through the accounts system and nor does the customer have an invoice/credit note that reflect the VAT etc correctly. Also the customer still has all their points allocated even for returned items, that's not a big issue, but is open to abuse.
What I really don't understand is why the RMA add on isn't even showing the option on an order to return an item - this is clearly shown in the training videos and documentation so something is definitely not working as advertised.
