The practical takeaway

Link every returned item to its original sale line and remaining returnable quantity. Keep the original discount allocation for partial returns.

Define the records and rules

Link every returned item to its original sale line and remaining returnable quantity. Keep the original discount allocation for partial returns.

Connect the operational workflow

Separate refund approval from stock disposition. A damaged return should not immediately become sellable inventory.

Checks before implementation

Test partial bundle returns, expired promotions and previously redeemed points. Keep the approver, reason and original transaction in the audit trail.
